The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim run for the next two weeks. The swell is almost non-existent or tiny for most of the period, and when there is a bit of energy, the wind is usually blowing the wrong way. There's a huge gap with absolutely nothing on offer from the 2nd of September all the way through to the 9th of September. During that stretch, the combined energy flatlines at zero. It’s not looking good for getting a wave.
The only real movement happens on the 10th of September, but it’s not great news. The swell picks up significantly, but with a major catch. The water is currently sitting at a very warm 83.8°, which is a massive 6.1° above normal – that’s seriously unusual for this time of year.
The best – and really the only – option in the whole outlook is Circoletto (Rome) on Thursday the 10th of September. The swell is jumping from nothing to a solid 5.9ft to 6.9ft from the W, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is strong, hitting 367 on Thursday morning and a very strong 885 by the afternoon. That’s a lot of power. But here’s the killer: the wind is onshore from the S at 12 mph, making it choppy and cross-onshore. With the swell size pushing over 8.2ft by the afternoon, this is only for experts. It’s a beach and reef setup, so with that wind and that size, trust me, it’s going to be a mess. It honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The crowds are often here, so you’ll have company even in the slop.
So, to be brutally honest, there’s nothing to get excited about. You’re looking at a long blank period in the middle, and the only potential swell at the end comes with really poor conditions.
