The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and knots.
Water temp is a balmy 84°F, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year.
We start with nothing. Total flat spell from Monday the 24th of August through most of the week. Just tiny, weak surf with messy winds. The only clean-looking morning is Wednesday the 26th of August with a 0.5m (2ft) S swell and light offshore NE wind at 6 knots. But the energy is weak – just 20 – and the period is short at 6 seconds. Not worth it.
The only real highlight is Saturday the 30th of August morning at Circoletto (Rome). You get a 1.0m (3ft) W swell, 6-second period, and 81 combined energy (moderate). The wind is offshore from the NNE at 9 knots, so it should be clean. But this break is inconsistent and rarely breaks, plus it’s advanced. Crowds are often there, so with the lack of other options, expect company. The swell direction is WSW, not the ideal SSW, but the offshore wind still makes it the best bet of the whole run.
After that, it’s back to tiny, weak surf – 0.2m to 0.4m (0.7ft to 1ft) – with onshore winds and barely any energy. The last few days into early September are a write-off.
Your one chance is the morning of the 30th of August. Set the alarm, hope the wind holds, and manage your expectations.
Rusty.
