Conditions at Tuason Point in August
August: The Build-Up Begins
August is still small on average - 0.7m (2.3ft) - but the period lengthens to 9.0s and the typhoon threat grows. ENE (25.9%) and E (19.3%) swells still dominate, but WSW (8.4%) and W (5.3%) swells become more significant. These are the early pulses from typhoons moving through the Philippine Sea.
The offshore wind statistic hits 33%, making August a genuinely consistent month for clean conditions. W winds blow 13.2% of the time and WNW adds another 6.5%, creating frequent offshore sessions. While the average wave height remains small, any passing typhoon within 1,000 km can throw 3-5ft (1-1.5m) of clean energy into the point. Water temp 29.3°C, precipitation 5.7 mm/day - summer is in full swing, but so is the storm track.
