Conditions at Shitovaya in November
November: Winter's Opening Salvo
November brings the next gear shift. The Siberian High re-emerges and NNW wind dominates again at 33.6%, with N (11.1%) and NW (8.8%) adding more offshore flow. The wave rose responds with a big NNW windswell peak (23.5%) and a secondary SSW lobe (15.1%), plus S (8.8%) to keep the direction mix honest. Average height rises to 2.3ft (0.7m), while average period still hangs around 5.0s-short-period and raw. But the trend is upward: when strong low pressure parks over the region and sends SSW swell against the SSE-facing bight while winds blow offshore from the north, Shitovaya can deliver punchy 2-4ft (0.6-1.2m) waves. Water temperature drops to 7.2°C and air to 1.1°C. Ideal wind is 5%, but the growing consistency of the N/NNW offshore regime makes November a better bet than the raw numbers suggest.
