Conditions at Kohala Lighthouse in June
June: Summer Slumber Sets In
June is the beginning of the true low season. The average swell height is still 1.6m (5.2ft), but the average period bottoms out at 8.8s and the direction mix is almost entirely ENE/E. Together, those two directions account for 96.9% of all swell, with E alone at 65.7%. There is effectively zero N, NNE, NE or NNW energy - the total contribution from the preferred north quadrant is less than 1%. What surf does exist is trade wind swell in the 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) range, with a fair amount of 1-1.5m (3-5ft) background energy. Wind is the final nail: ENE/E trades combine for 96.9% of all wind reports, and ideal surf wind drops to 0%. Even the most forgiving morning session will likely be crossed up by side-shore trade wind. Water temp climbs to 25.5°C, air sits at 21.5°C, and precipitation falls to 2.22 mm/day. Keep the shortboard in the car - this is not the month for the lighthouse.
