Conditions at Molhe Leste in November
November: Building Towards Winter
November grinds into full winter mode. Average swell climbs to 2.5m (8ft) with a powerful 12.1s period, and while NW (20.6%) and NNW (15.9%) are still the big players, the W and WSW component is more frequent than in earlier months-a key driver for good surf at Molhe Leste. The wind patterns become more variable; offshore NNE and N flows still combine for nearly 18%, but E/ESE winds are also a large part of the mix, preserving clean yet cooler conditions. With water at 16.7°C and air around 15°C, it is time for full winter rubber and trackable swells. The spot gets much more serious.
