The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, we’ve got a bit of a slow start ahead. The first week and a half is pretty much a write-off. There’s barely a ripple from now until the morning of Saturday the 15th of August. A few tiny pulses come through, but they’re all under 3 ft with messy winds and short periods. Unless you’re happy practicing pop-ups on a lake, there’s nothing to recommend.
The only real standout in this whole 16-day window arrives on the morning of Saturday the 15th of August at Fano Lido (Spiaggia di Ponente). The water here is running a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting around 82°. We finally see some proper northeast swell at 5 ft, with a 6-second period. The combined energy is moderate at 241. It’s not a groundswell, but it’s the most we’ve got. The wind is cross-offshore from the WNW at 9 mph, which will keep things reasonably clean. This is a sandbar setup, though, and it’s inconsistent, so don’t expect magic. Still, it’s the one morning in the whole outlook where you might actually catch a wave worth talking about. The afternoon turns choppy, so make the most of the morning.
After that, the surf drops away again. We get a small, glassy morning on Tuesday the 18th of August with a 2 ft northwest swell, but the period is short and it’s just not enough to get excited about.
So, to sum it up: if you’re desperate, Saturday the 15th of August morning is your window. Otherwise, it’s a long flat spell, and that’s just how it goes sometimes around here.
Rusty.
