Conditions at Kitaizumi in July

July: Summer Flatness and Typhoon Watch

July is the heart of the low season. Average swell height drops to 0.9m (3ft), period sits at 8.1s, and the swell window is almost entirely E/ESE/SE. ESE leads at 31.7 percent, SE at 25.7, E at 21.6, and ENE at 7.2. It is not flat by Caribbean standards, but the short-period, mostly wind-driven sea rarely makes it to the east-facing beach as a clean, rideable wave. The wind blows from the onshore SSE and SE sector 25.8 percent of the time, and the ideal surf wind percentage is just 33 percent.

With air temperatures averaging 22.1°C, water temp at 20.2°C and the highest monthly rainfall of the year at 5.51 mm/day, this is a month for boardshorts, rain jackets and patience. Keep an eye on the western Pacific as the tropical cyclone season begins to stir; the first pulses of typhoon energy can appear near the end of the month and offer a small but exciting preview of fall.
