Conditions at Martinique in February

February: Locked-In Arctic Surf

February remains firmly in winter mode, with average swell heights again at 1.7m (5.6ft) and periods holding at 8.7s. The wave distribution is nearly identical to January, with SSW (15.4%), S (11.1%) and SW (10.6%) providing the most consistent source of southern heave. Offshore winds remain frequent through the NW/NNW quadrant, giving Martinique a 38% ideal wind score. The ocean reaches its coldest point of the year, dropping to just 0.8°C, while air temperatures average -2.0°C and precipitation runs at 3.20 mm/day. Sea ice and extreme cold are real hazards. Still, when the northwest fetch cleans up a Nor'easter swell, the waves can be powerful, peaky and well worth the pain.
