Conditions at Furadouro in February
February: Powerful, Grinding WNW Lines
February keeps the winter engine running. Average swell height sits at 5-6ft (1.5-1.8m), period 12.6s, and the directional spread tilts toward the northwest: WNW 43.7%, NW 21.1%, W 15.9%. Expect consistent, powerful surf with waves regularly in the 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) range and a solid 6.5-8ft (2-2.5m) component. Ideal wind is 43% - another strong winter score. The wind rose highlights NNW at 16.5% and combined E/ESE winds around 14.1%, so while there is plenty of cross/onshore energy in the mix, favorable offshore windows are still frequent enough to deliver clean days. Water temperature drops to its yearly minimum of 13.4°C, air temps average 10.8°C, and precipitation averages 3.16 mm/day. When the swell lines up under cold offshore skies, Furadouro is world-class.
