June: Peak Power But Tricky Winds
June stays at a solid 1.8m (6ft) average with a 13.8s period. SSW energy remains the engine, producing 86.3% of the spectrum, and 52.4% of that is in the 1.5-2m bracket, with 16.4% from 2-2.5m. There is also a spike in S-direction swell at 7.5%, reflecting the winter storm track. At this size and period, the ocean has serious push, but the directional mismatch with Lobitos' north-facing layout keeps the quality in check.
Ideal wind falls to 52%. The wind roses show a very narrow distribution: SSE (35.1%), S (35.1%) and SSW (25.0%), with 20-30kph speeds dominating. That is still offshore, but it is strong and steady, creating textured conditions even on good days. Air temps drop to 22.0°C, water temp to 20.3°C, and rainfall is almost non-existent at 0.04mm/day. For bigger-wave hunters with a high tolerance for wind, June has power in spades.
