November: Full-On Storm Season

November is prime time for serious surf at Meio da Baja. Average wave height jumps to 8.2ft (2.5m), period reaches 12.1 seconds, and energy is pouring in from the entire northern and western quadrants. The distribution shows a wide spread of NW, NNW, WNW and even W to WSW swells, which is a sign of active, complex low-pressure systems in the North Atlantic.

Ideal wind is 29%, and the southern offshore directions are well represented. On the flip side, NNW wind appears enough to ruin many swells, so you need to time the frontal passages.
