Conditions at Gas Chambers in July
July: The Deepest Summer Slump
July is the slowest month at Gas Chambers. The average wave height is around 3ft (1m) and the period bottoms out at 6.7s-right at the choppy, short-period end of the spectrum. Swell is overwhelmingly from the ENE at 67.8%, with E adding 26.5%. Nearly all of it falls in the 2-3ft (0.5-1m) and 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range, and there is virtually no oversized swell to talk about.
The ideal wind percentage slips to 51%, as the summer pressure gradient weakens and winds become lighter and more variable. Offshore E/ENE winds still dominate, but with such short periods and small heights, Gas Chambers becomes a groveling, longboard-friendly zone. Water temperature is 28.6°C, air temperature averages 27.7°C, and precipitation is 3.51mm/day as tropical convection increases.
