Conditions at Teahupoo in August
August: Maximum Size, Minimal Glass
August keeps the Teahupoo swell window wide open. Average height stays at 7.2ft (2.2m), period has eased slightly to 12.0s, and ideal offshore wind remains low at 22%. Direct S and SSW swell still combine for about 30.5% of the total, which means consistent groundswell energy hits the reef whenever a strong South Pacific low passes through. The trade wind machine is the main obstacle, with E and ESE producing 44.6% of all wind observations and a big share at 20-40kph. The quality dial turns on the offshore windows, which are fewer but sometimes excellent. Conditions are dry and crisp-air temp 24.8°C, water 26.2°C, and only 1.72 mm/day of rain.
