Conditions at Melbourne Beach in July
July: Hurricane Season Rumbles in the Distance
July stays slow but there's a pulse of tropical energy in the water. Average swell height remains at 0.5m and average period ticks up slightly to 8.0s. The swell distribution is extremely east-heavy, with ESE at 44.7% and E at 36.6%, yet nearly all of it is below 1m. Good swell from the ENE is just 6.6%, so power is hard to come by. Ideal wind is 13% of the time. The prevailing wind comes from the ESE (13.6%), SE (12.6%), SSE (10.4%), S (10.1%) and SSW (10.4%), which keeps the beach onshore and mushy for long stretches. Water temperature reaches 28.1C and air temps average 27.4C, with frequent showers at 5.82 mm/day. The wildcard is the tropics: if a hurricane or tropical storm tracks toward Florida, the E/ESE swell can suddenly produce real waves.
