Conditions at Kai's Place in March
March: The Storm Track Flexes for the Last Time
March keeps a strong winter pulse. Average swell drops only slightly to 2.5m (8.2ft) at 11.3s, and the WSW direction becomes the single biggest swell source at 16.4%, followed by SW at 14.6%. A big chunk of those waves arrives in the 1.5-2.5m band, which translates to head-high-plus waves with real push. Winds remain favorable: 29% of the time the east-to-southeast offshore flow keeps the surface clean. Water temperature bottoms out at 5.4°C (41.7°F), and air temperatures are still winterlike at 2.5°C average, but the increasing daylight and still-powerful North Pacific groundswells make March a hidden gem for experienced surfers. Precipitation drops to 5.56 mm/day, so the windows between systems are often bright and clean.
