Conditions at Balangan in February
February: Still Trapped in Monsoon Flow
February runs a near carbon copy of January from a wave-height perspective: 5.6ft (1.7m) average swell and a 12.5s period. The swell distribution remains heavily biased toward the SW quadrant, with SSW at 30.9% and SW at 50.3%, though almost none of that energy arrives from the ideal W/NW window for Balangan. Winds stay locked in the westerly monsoon, with W at 32.2%, WNW at 18.2% and WSW at 11.6%; favorable conditions only register 21% of the time. The result is a lumpy, wind-affected surf zone, particularly on the outer sections of the break. With 8.38 mm/day of rain, 27.8°C air and 29.2°C water, February rewards patience more than commitment. Watch for the occasional morning gap in the clouds and a brief easterly pulse, but keep expectations modest.
