November: Monsoon Remnants and Quiet Windows

November is the lightest month of the transition, with the average swell falling back to 0.8m (2.6ft) and a 7.0s period. The SSE window remains dominant at 75.5 percent, but the height distribution drops fast: 45.1 percent is in the 0.5-1m (1.6-3.3ft) groveler zone and only 3.1 percent reaches the 1.5-2m (4.9-6.6ft) range. SE swell adds 17.9 percent, giving the beach more small, rippable surf as the trade-wind engine winds down.

Wind direction is far more mixed than in the previous six months. SE is still the most common at 28.0 percent, but the offshore NNW sector rises to 5.4 percent, along with NW at 2.9 percent and WNW at 2.7 percent; ideal conditions reach 12 percent. That is not high, but it is the trend that matters as the monsoon begins to reestablish. Water temperature climbs to 27.0°C, air temp averages 26.7°C, and rainfall increases to 2.13mm/day. November offers the first real hope of clean, glassy mornings after months of trade wind.
