Conditions at Lagos in November

November: Building Momentum

November brings the winter storm track into full focus across Iberia. Average surf builds to around 4ft (1.2m) with a solid 11.6s period, and the Atlantic low-pressure conveyor is now firing on all cylinders. The swell mix is increasingly balanced: WNW and NW still lead, but WSW, SW and S components make up a more meaningful slice of the energy - ideal for Lagos' southeast-facing banks. NNW offshore winds are the most common breeze, although the wind rose is more variable, with E/ESE and SW/WSW events producing less favourable or even onshore conditions on storm days. This variability is reflected in the 34% ideal wind statistic. Sea temps cool to 17.7°C, air temps average 16.7°C and precipitation climbs to 2.95mm/day. Plenty of power on offer for those willing to work the forecast.
