Conditions at Krishna River in March
March: The Monsoon's First Breath
March signals the transition into the hot pre-monsoon season. Swell size remains around 0.8m (2-3ft) with average period 8.7s, but the direction shifts strongly to the SSE: 71 percent of all wave energy comes from the south-southeast, with SE adding 17 percent and S another 8 percent. In a perfect world this would be excellent for Krishna River, but the wind turns almost fully onshore: S winds account for 35 percent, SSE 31 percent, SSW 12 percent and SE 13 percent. Ideal offshore wind frequency plummets to just 1 percent. What the spot gains in optimal swell direction it loses entirely in surface quality. Expect short, sectiony, bumpy conditions with the occasional bigger pulse from a pre-monsoon low, but very few clean windows.
