Conditions at Peahi-Jaws in February
February: Deep Winter, Heavy Water
February continues the winter assault on Maui's north shore. The average swell height remains 6ft (1.9m) and the wave period is a heavy 12.2s. NNW swells dominate the spectrum at 28.7%, while N and NW add another 13.4%, so the optimal window is still wide open. However, the trade-wind component becomes slightly stronger: E and ESE winds total about 56%, and ideal offshore wind drops to 25% of the time. The mix of long-period NNW groundswell and occasional NE/ENE energy means Jaws can be firing one day and a bumpy cross-shore mess the next. Air temps average 22.0°C and water temp 23.9°C, and winter rainfall continues at around 1.8mm/day.
