The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for Circoletto (Rome) and, well, it’s a tough stretch ahead. This beach and reef setup is pretty exposed, but we’ve got a real dry spell on our hands. For the next eight or nine days, there’s basically nothing worth paddling out for – flat, tiny, or blown out. You’re looking at a long gap of poor conditions from now until around the 24th of August.
Here’s the rundown. The first flicker of something real shows up on Tuesday morning, the 25th. We’ve got a pulse of swell coming in with a 7ft face from the West, period around 8 seconds. That's pushing some moderate-to-strong energy into the coast. However, the wind is cross-shore from the southeast at 6 mph, keeping things a bit messy. That’s a chunk of swell for here, but it’s marginal and the quality is questionable – might be a kite session rather than a clean paddle. The afternoon gets even uglier with strong winds.
The only other day with any potential is Wednesday morning, the 26th. The swell drops back to 3ft from the WSW, wind is moderate cross-shore, so it’s still pretty average. The rest of the month is either flat or showing junk waves.
Honestly, if you’re desperate, you could take a look at Circoletto on the 25th morning if the wind plays nice, but it’s a long shot and the energy is there, just not the quality. For the most part, this is a write-off until we get a proper change in the pattern.
Stay patient.
Rusty.
