Conditions at Cordoama in February
February: Solid Swells, Shifting Winds
February delivers more of the same heavy-hitting Atlantic pattern, with average surf around 8ft (2.4m) and an average period of 12.9s. The swell is again dominated by the NW quadrant: NW 23.6%, WNW 16.8%, NNW 11.4%, and W 4.3% combine for over half of all swell observations. The energy remains strong, but the wind trends a bit more northerly than January. NNW winds jump to 24.4% of all readings, with NW adding 7.3%, so onshore and cross-onshore flow is the biggest obstacle. Only 15% of the time does the wind align offshore, making clean sessions a genuine luxury. When a cold front passes and the wind clocks west or southwest, Cordoama can handle standout 6-8ft (1.8-2.4m) surf with powerful walls. The weather stays cool and unsettled, with average air temps around 13.7C and precipitation near 1.79mm/day, so bring the steamer and the patience.
