The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for the most part. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing special before a potential window opens up, but it’s a long way off.
Looking at the charts, the first real chance for a wave at Circoletto (Rome) doesn’t show up until Monday the 17th of August. Before that, we’re looking at a solid 10 days of near-flat conditions. There’s a tiny pulse of swell here and there, but it’s just not enough to get excited about. The water is running about 83°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least it’ll be nice for a swim.
Right, let’s get to the only real standout. Monday the 17th of August is the day to have your eye on. The morning session at Circoletto is where it’s at. We’re looking at a 12ft swell from the west, with a period of 8 seconds. That’s a solid amount of energy pushing in – the combined energy reading is a massive 1786, so it’s got some serious power. Now, that size is squarely in the “experts only” zone; it’s going to be way too big for beginners. The wind is set to be light offshore from the northeast, which will keep the faces clean. Keep in mind, this spot is inconsistent, so when it fires, it’s a real treat. The downside is that the afternoon on the same day looks like a write-off with onshore wind, so make the most of the morning.
The following morning, Tuesday the 18th of August, the swell drops to 4ft from the west, still with a decent 8-second period. The combined energy is down to 273, which is moderate. With a light cross-offshore breeze from the east-southeast, it’ll be clean. It’s a much more manageable size, but it’s not the standout that Monday morning is.
So, truth is, there’s a big gap of flatness until the 17th, and even then, the good window is narrow. Don’t hold your breath, but keep an eye on that Monday morning.
Stay frothy,
Rusty
