Conditions at Los Patos de Barahona in November

November: Winter Fires Up

November brings the first solid signs of the winter surf season. Average height is still only 2.6ft (0.8m) and the period is 6.3s, but the direction begins to move back toward the east: E swell jumps to 27 percent while ESE drops to 63 percent. Wind-wise, ENE returns to 43 percent, E to 22 percent, and NE to 19 percent, with ideal offshore wind at 5 percent. Air temperatures hang around 25.1°C, water is 28.5°C, and rainfall remains high at 2.43mm/day. The increasing E component means slightly more organized lines than the pure ESE mush of summer. Add the first North Atlantic frontal passages, and you have the potential for clean, punchy 3-4ft (0.9-1.2m) surf on the rare days when the wind goes W/NW.
