Conditions at Latigo Point in February
February: The Wettest, Most Powerful Stretch
February keeps Latigo in prime winter form. The average swell height nudges up to 1.1m (3.5-4ft) with a 12.0s average period, and the swell mix still favors W (49%) and WSW (26%) with a useful 9% from SW. Those longer W/WNW bands can push 1.5-2m (5-6ft) sets through the key 12s-plus intervals, especially when the North Pacific low-pressure train is active. Wind is ideal 59% of the time, with NNE and NNW standing out as the dominant offshore contributors. This is also one of the wettest months - precipitation averages 3.71mm/day and air temperatures stay cool at 13.4°C, while the water temperature is 13.9°C. When the rain clears and the wind snaps offshore out of the north, Latigo has that crisp, wintry point-break look; the challenge is finding the window before the next front moves in.
