October: The Autumn Turnaround
October marks the transition back to cleaner surf. The average height is 1.0m (3ft) and the period is 13.5 seconds, but the wind quality jumps back to 80% ideal. Swell directions start to mix: SW is still dominant at 50.4%, but WSW rises to 32.9% and W to 7.5%, with an early hint of WNW (0.9%). The north Pacific storm track is slowly reawakening, and while the summer south-swell is fading, the increasing northerly wind flow (NNW 20.3%, NNE 19.1%, N 7.9%) adds a glassy top to the fading south-swell. Rainfall drops to 4.55 mm/day and water temp is 30.1°C. The result is a lovely month where late-season south swell overlaps with autumn's offshore winds - often the hidden gem of the year.
