The Lowdown
Right, let's get into it. Honestly, looking at this 16-day stretch for the Rome area, the pickings are as slim as a wetsuit in a heatwave. We’ve got a solid gap of surf-free days to start – honestly, the whole outlook is a series of tiny, weak signals and calm spells. The first real chance to paddle out is on Sunday the 13th, but even then it’s a laughably small 0.3ft swell.
Circoletto (Rome) – This is the only break on the cards. It's an advanced spot and it's inconsistent, which is no surprise here. Right now, the water temp is sitting at 82°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That's a seriously weird anomaly – it feels more like a bath than the Mediterranean.
We kick off with that 0.3ft on Sunday the 13th. There’s a clear sky and a light offshore from the NE, so it’ll be clean, but with a combined swell energy of just (1), it’s barely a ripple. That's the story for the following days too. Monday the 14th shows 0.7ft from the WNW with cleaner conditions on the morning ENE breeze, but still just (1) for energy. Tuesday the 15th has 1ft, the best we'll see, with a NE offshore and a morning energy reading of (3), but the period is a terrible 3 seconds – just wind chop. Wednesday the 16th is same deal, tiny and clean but nothing to get out of bed for.
Then we hit the weekend. Thursday the 18th is the first time we see something a little bigger – 3ft from the west on Friday morning with a combined energy of (59). But it’s coming with a SE wind that makes it choppy and cross-shore, and there’s a risk of thunderstorms. Not exactly the dream.
After that, it’s back to tiny bits of NW windswell through the next week, all under 2ft and frequently less than 7 seconds of period. A few mornings have clean, glassy conditions from a NE offshore, like on the 20th and 22nd, but the swell just isn't there to back it up. We even get two completely flat days on the 25th and 26th with glassy water but zero waves.
Overall, there's no standout here. The biggest little pulse is the 3ft on the 18th, but that's only for experts looking for a fight with chop. For everyone else, the board stays on the car. This is a tough stretch – a blank run like this is fairly normal for the area when there's no groundswell in the window.
Rusty, signing off.
