Conditions at Cauit Point in August

August: Summer Doldrums with Longer-Period Hints

August holds the same low-summer pattern but with a slight increase in average period to 9.6s. This is interesting - though the height remains 0.5m (1.5-2ft), the longer period hints at distant storms and typhoons in the western Pacific. E (35%), ENE (24%), and ESE (13%) swells make up most of the spectrum. The wind regime is dominated by S and SSE winds, with SSW and SW adding another healthy share, so Cauit Point sees as much offshore wind as it will all year - ideal wind is 29%. It is not surf of consequence for most, but on the right day, a clean waist-high glass-off is enough to make a longboarder smile. Water temps are 29.2°C, air temps 27.9°C, and rain is low at 5.8 mm/day.
