Conditions at Berria in February
February: Cold, Chunky and Consistent
February stays locked in winter mode. Average swell remains at 6.6ft (2.0m) and period 12.8s, still firmly in the powerful long-period category. The direction distribution barely changes: NW 36.1%, WNW 19.8%, and NNW 13.6% combine for nearly 70% of all waves, again from the optimal north-west exposure. Wave heights concentrate between 5-8ft (1.5-2.5m), with over 20% of the NW swell arriving at 6-8ft (1.8-2.4m) and occasional bigger bombs during more active phases. Ideal wind drops slightly to 46%, as W and WNW winds gain a little more ground (11.0% and 11.2% respectively), bringing more cross-shore/onshore energy between fronts. Still, S, SSE and SSW winds remain common enough to give clean pockets. Water temperature hits its annual low at 12.6°C, air temp averages 9.5°C, and rainfall is 3.03 mm/day - winter wetsuit session guaranteed.
