March: The Autumn Window Opens a Crack
March sees the average swell nudge up to around 6ft (1.7m) and the period reach 13.6 seconds-the longest of the year. SW (59.6%) and WSW (35.8%) continue to dominate, and 12.4% of the total energy now falls in the 7-8ft (2-2.5m) class. The ideal offshore wind window, however, is still only 1%. The wind rose remains dominated by SSW (26.3%) and SW (35.3%), though there is a hint of N/NNE flow creeping in. If a late-season cold front aligns with an easterly land breeze, El Muro can turn on; most days, however, are glassy in the dark and bumpy by mid-morning.
Water temperature eases to 14.5°C and air temps average 19.2°C. Rainfall remains minor at 0.06 mm/day.
