Conditions at Mayport Poles in April
April: The Spring Lull Settles In
April is when the winter machine switches off. Average wave height remains 2ft (0.6m), but the period drops to 6.5s, and the swell becomes dominated by ESE (27.1%), E (18.1%), SE (16.6%) and ENE (14.8%). That is a much softer, more wind-driven wave. The wind data shows why: SE winds are the most common (10.2%), with strong support from SSE (9.0%) and ESE (8.3%). Onshore east-southeast flow outnumbers offshore western flow, and ideal surfing winds fall to 12%. You still get the odd clean groundswell from a late-season nor'easter, but most days are small, grovelly surf in the 2ft (0.6m) range. Air temps warm to 20.4°C, water is 21.6°C, and rainfall is the driest of the year so far at 2.19 mm/day.
