Conditions at San Pedrito in March

March: The Transition Begins

March marks the beginning of the spring transition. The average height ticks up to 4-5ft (1.2-1.5m) and the period remains excellent at 13.7s. The swell rose still favors W (43 percent) and WNW (26 percent), but the WSW (20 percent) and SW (8 percent) quadrants are becoming much more important. This matters at San Pedrito because those are the directions that line up best with its southwest exposure, meaning more waves with proper shape. Wind distribution is still winter-like: NNW (38 percent), NW (25 percent) and WNW (19 percent) keep the ocean organized, and 58 percent of the time the wind is ideal. Air temperature rises to 21.0°C, water temperature sits at 20.4°C, and precipitation is nearly nonexistent at 0.05 mm/day. This is a good month to hunt head-high-plus sets before the sea breeze kicks in.
