The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough one for the Rome area. The next couple of weeks are looking real quiet for surf, so don't get your hopes up too much.
The standout, and really the only one worth mentioning, is Circoletto (Rome). This spot is a beach and reef setup, and it's inconsistent, so it needs everything to line up. For the first week and a half, it's a write-off. Tiny, weak swells, mostly under 2 feet, and a lot of cross-onshore winds. The water is a warm 84°F, which is a massive 7° warmer than usual, so it's very unusual for this time of year.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Monday the 14th of September. We've got a south swell forecast at 4 feet with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (236). The morning is looking clean with a light offshore wind from the NE. This is your best chance for a session, but it's still a small, short-period swell, so don't expect barrels.
Then into Tuesday the 15th of September, we see a bigger push from the WSW at 5 feet, still with a 7 second period. The energy is strong (269). The morning looks clean again with a light cross-offshore breeze. This 5 feet might be a bit much for beginners, but it's the most size we'll see. The wind is light, so it could be clean.
After that, it drops off again. Wednesday the 16th has a smaller 3 feet WSW swell, with the energy dropping to 89. The morning is clean, but it's just ordinary.
Bottom line: if you're keen, you've got a couple of mornings, Monday the 14th and Tuesday the 15th of September, that could be worthwhile. The rest of the 16 days is a long gap of flat or tiny, messy conditions. The inconsistency of this spot really shows in this forecast. It's a waiting game.
