The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what the next couple of weeks are shaping up like for the Rome area.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim start. For the next two weeks, we’re looking at a whole lot of nothing. From now until the end of September, there’s just no surf to get excited about. We’re talking a solid 14-day stretch of flat, wobbly junk. You’ll see tiny dribbles here and there, but nothing that’ll get you out of bed. The wind and conditions flip around all over the place too, making it even less worthwhile.
The only real blink of life comes on Thursday, October 1st at Circoletto (Rome). Finally, the ocean wakes up a little. We get a pulse of swell pushing in from the SSE, around 4.3ft. That’s still pretty small, but it's the biggest we've seen in this whole forecast. Combined energy sits at 192 (moderate energy), so there's a little bit of push behind it. The morning looks best, with a clean 6 mph offshore breeze from the NE keeping things tidy. The period is short at 5-6 seconds though, so it’ll be a bit weak and crumbly, not a proper groundswell. This is an advanced spot, so don’t be fooled by the small size – the beach and reef setup can still throw some tricky sections. It’ll be a bit of a scrappy wave, but after two weeks of nothing, it’s the only game in town. The water is feeling way warmer than usual for this time of year, by over 3°, so that’s a weird bonus if you do paddle out.
