Conditions at Lakey Peak in February
February: Same Swell, Same Onshore Battle
February is a near carbon copy of January. The SW swell machine keeps running - 76% of the waves come from the SW, 5% from WSW, and 18% from SSW - with the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) class dominating and an average period of 12.9s. Yet the northwest monsoon remains firmly entrenched. Westerly flow (WSW through NW) accounts for roughly 70% of the wind observations, and the percentage of ideal surfing wind drops to 11%. The ocean surface is often textured and bumpy, especially on the bigger days. Rainfall is still heavy at 7.26mm/day, while air temps hover near 27.4°C and the water stays a warm 29.3°C. Patience is required; the odd dawn light-wind window is the only time Lakey Peak shows its magic.
