Conditions at Tadado in February
February: Still Waiting on the Angle
February mirrors January with an average swell height of 5-6ft (1.7m) and an average period of 7.1s. The swell distribution is still heavily weighted toward the W (25%) and ENE (14%), while the combined SSE/S/SSW/SW window only reaches 10%. This means the south-facing beach is often bypassed by the larger North Pacific energy, leaving mostly cross-shore and surface-driven waves. The wind regime improves slightly with a touch more NE influence (15.5%), and the ideal offshore wind percentage holds at 26%. When a southerly groundswell does sneak through the Aleutian low wraparound, the NE winds can make for surprisingly clean, punchy surf. Water temperature edges down to 15.8°C, and rain totals rise to 3.3 mm/day - a cold, grey month with only occasional glimmers of hope.
