June: Winter Groundswell Takes Hold
June brings the first true winter groundswell pattern to Herradurra, but the wind becomes less user-friendly. Ideal conditions drop to 81 percent as S wind strengthens to 82.6 percent, with 15.3 percent of observations in the 20-30kph range. The window between swells is less glassy than in autumn, though the N/NW onshore direction remains absent.
Swell holds at 5ft (1.5m) with a 13.4s period. SSW energy contributes 86.0 percent, while a slightly stronger S component (3.7 percent) and SW (9.6 percent) fill out the spectrum. The 5-7ft (1.5-2m) range now accounts for 42.6 percent of all waves, with 2-2.5m (6-8ft) waves at 7.1 percent. These are powerful, grinding southwest pulses, and the bigger days require some respect. Water temperature falls to 17.4°C, and air temperatures average 17.2°C.
