Conditions at Manzanillo in June

June: Prime Time Starts to Fire

June continues the run of quality south groundswell. SSW and SW split the energy almost evenly at 33.1 and 33.3 percent, with S adding 8.2 percent and WSW 2.5 percent. Combined with a 13.4-second average period, this is a classic long-period southern hemisphere swell showing. The 1-1.5m (3-5ft) range is again the sweet spot: 24.3 percent of SSW and 26.2 percent of SW sit there, with around 5-6 percent of the month reaching 1.5-2m (5-7ft). Offshore wind conditions are the best of the year up to this point; ideal wind sits at 29 percent, and while ENE remains the most common direction at 56 percent, the speeds are generally lighter and more manageable. Air temperatures hold at 28.2°C, rainfall is 5.44 mm/day and water temperature is 29.0°C. Expect warm rain showers to mix in with glassy dawn waves -- a very good tradeoff.
