The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer around Circoletto (Rome) for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty bleak run for the next week and a half. The first real chance of anything worthwhile doesn’t show up until Wednesday morning, 26 August. That’s a solid gap of over a week with nothing but tiny, weak, messy waves… or just flat. There’s a few mornings with glassy or offshore conditions, but the swell is basically non-existent – we’re talking 0.7ft to 1ft of short-period junk, and the combined energy barely breaks into double digits (2 to 7). Not worth paddling out for.
The water temperature on the first day we have data (Tuesday 11 August) is 85°, which is a whopping 6° warmer than the long-term average for this time of year – that’s very unusual, the sea is like a bath.
Now, the standout window – and it’s the only one worth getting excited about – is Wednesday morning, 26 August. We’ve got a 7ft swell from the west, with a 7-second period. The combined energy is a solid 572, so there’s moderate power in the water. The wind is light and offshore from the northeast, so the wave faces will be clean and lined up. For an advanced-level break like Circoletto, this is the best on offer by a long shot. The swell direction (W) is a bit off from the optimum SSW, but the size and clean conditions will still make for a good session. Keep in mind, this is a week and a half away, so the forecast is promising but not locked in. The afternoon does get choppy with a cross-onshore wind, so hit it early.
Other than that, Friday morning 21 August has a 7ft west swell but with cross-onshore wind and a marginal score, so it’s more of a mission. The 8ft swell on Wednesday afternoon 26 August is too big for all but experts, and the cross-onshore wind makes it a messy option.
So, in short: wait for the morning of Wednesday 26 August, get a dawny at Circoletto, and enjoy the clean 7ft west swell. Otherwise, it’s a flat spell.
Rusty.
