The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here, and I’ve gotta be straight with you – this outlook for the next 16 days is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing special, with a lot of flat spells and choppy conditions. But let’s walk through it.
Right now, the waves are tiny and the wind is messy. The first real surf recommendation doesn’t appear until the afternoon of Friday, July 25th, and even then it’s pretty weak. After that, we’ve got a couple of days with a little bit of energy, but nothing that’s going to get the heart racing.
Circoletto (Rome) is a beach and reef set-up, and it’s inconsistent at the best of times. The water temperature is sitting at a very unusual 84°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. The wind is a real problem here – mostly cross-onshore, keeping things choppy. The swell direction is mostly from the south, but the optimum for this spot is from the SSW, so it’s not matching up well.
The best window we’ve got is around Sunday, July 27th. There’s a small bump of S swell, 4ft, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy of all swells directed here is moderate at 136. The wind is cross-offshore from the ESE in the morning, which makes it clean. That’s your best chance, but it’s still small. By Monday morning, July 28th, we get a clean, light wind, but the swell drops to 2ft.
After that, it’s mostly flat with a few tiny, choppy pulses. There’s a glassy morning on Sunday, August 2nd, but the swell is practically non-existent at 0.7ft. The rest of the first week of August is a dead zone – no recommendations, just clean, flat mornings and onshore afternoons. There is a small increase on Friday, August 7th, with 4ft swell from the west, but again, the wind is cross-shore, and the energy is weak at 97.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the cleanest conditions come with the smallest swells. But for a proper surf, this is a rough run. If you’re a kite surfer, the stronger, choppier afternoons with the S and SW winds might be more interesting than what a paddle surfer would find.
Keep your eyes on the forecasts, because it tends not to stay this poor for long. But right now, it’s a struggle.
Rusty.
