What February feels like
February is the low point of the ocean's temperature cycle, running weeks behind the air — a lag that works in your favor come September. A restaurant week and the occasional contest for genuinely hardy surfers are about the extent of the calendar.
Expect about 10 days with something falling — rain, snow, or the sloppy mix in between. about 18 nights dip below freezing.
Can you swim?
The ocean runs about 41° — frigid — locals in wetsuits only.
