Conditions at Coco Pipe in July
July: Deep Summer Doldrums and E-Swell Shadow
July is the dead of summer. The average height is 4ft (1.2m), but the period is only 7.2s, and the direction breakdown is heavily weighted to E (76%) and ENE (24%), with almost no NE or NNE swell. This is the least favourable swell direction distribution of the year for Coco Pipe. The NNE-facing beach is left with short-period, east-oriented windswell that rarely builds into good shape.
The trade winds blow hardest this month: ESE (43%), E (31%) and SE (20%) dominate, and ideal offshore S/SW winds are almost nonexistent at just 0.2% of the wind rose. The good news is that tropical cyclones are beginning to stir in the Atlantic, and any passing tropical wave can briefly disrupt the trade-wind monotony. Otherwise, keep expectations low. Air temperature averages 27.6°C, water temperature is 27.8°C, and rainfall is 1.72 mm/day.
