Conditions at Krishna River in April
April: Spring Heat and Onshore Grind
April sees a noticeable increase in swell energy as the Bay of Bengal grows more restless. Average wave heights climb to 1.0m (3-4ft), period holds at 8.5s, and the vast majority of the swell comes from SSE and S: 76 percent from SSE and 19 percent from S. This is prime swell direction for Krishna River. Yet ideal wind sits at just 1 percent, with the wind field locked into a brutal onshore regime: S at 42 percent, SSE at 30 percent and SSW at 18 percent. The river mouth becomes a bumpy, wind-blown mess for most of the month. Air temperatures reach 29°C, water temperature climbs to 31°C, and the first signs of convective showers appear. Only a strong coastal low or a rare land breeze can salvage a session.
