October: Fall Swell and Offshore Windows
October carries the fall momentum forward. Average surf height remains around 2ft (0.6m), period is 7.1s, and ideal wind is again 9%. The swell rose shows ESE 13.8%, SE 11.3%, SSE 9.7%, and S 8.5%, with ENE and E adding an easterly component. This is a mix of lingering tropical swell, early-season nor'easters, and long-period Atlantic groundswell. Crucially, NW and NNW winds gain strength, with ideal offshore directions N/NNE/NW/NNW making up roughly 28% of observations-more than any month since winter. Air temperatures cool to an average of 16.1°C (61°F), water dips to 18.3°C (65°F), and surf sessions become far more comfortable than summer's soggy onshore slop.
