Conditions at Lido di Ostia in November
November: Storm Season Gets Serious
November is back to prime winter form. Average heights build to 3ft (1m) with an average period of 5.6s, and the storm track is fully open. The swell mix is a battle between southeasterly Scirocco waves (SE 10%, SSE 11%, S 11%) and the ideal westerly quadrant (WSW 14%, W 9%, SW 7%, WNW 4%), giving the west-facing spot plenty of opportunities. The wind regime now favors the surfer: NE/ENE/E/ESE offshore winds total about 29%, while onshore westerlies are down to 16%. The ideal wind ratio climbs to 23%. With the sea still retaining some warmth (17.9°C) compared to the cooling air (12°C), thermal gradients fuel vigorous low pressure. November can produce the best combo of size and wind cleanliness of the entire autumn, and the beach becomes a proper surf spot once more.
