Conditions at Carnon in July

July: High Pressure, Glittering Flatness

July is statistically the flattest month at Carnon. Average wave height is 1.3ft (0.4m) and the period bottoms out at 3.6s. Only 2% of the time is the wind ideal. The wave rose remains dominated by S (20.1%), SSW (14.0%) and SSE (12.9%), but 17.3% of all observations are S in the smallest 0-0.5m bin and 13.6% are SSW below half a metre. In plain language: the ocean is glassy or crinkled, but there are no waves. Winds from NW (18.8%) and NNW (11.0%) do keep the beach offshore and the air warm, and the rare 0.5-1m (1.6-3.3ft) SE windswell can show up after a storm in the Tyrrhenian or Adriatic, but don't hold your breath. Water temp climbs to 22.0°C and air to 24.2°C; summer life is good, surf life is not.
