Conditions at Patrokl in February
February: Still Winter, Still Marginal
February remains locked in the same short-period pattern: average swell 2-3ft (0.6-0.9m), period 4.9s, ideal surf wind just 5%. NNW is still the top swell direction at 33%, while S and SSW swell combine for 22%; neither is in the sweet spot for an east-facing beach. The winter wind machine continues, with NNW winds at 44% and a strong N component at 10%, so most surfaces are lumpy. The best news is the slow return of westerly/NW offshore winds, which total close to 15% of the wind rose, but the timing window remains tiny. Water temp drops to -1.2C, the coldest of the year, with air temps around -6.7C. Expect freezing temperatures, short-period windslop, and very low wave quality.
