The Lowdown
Alright Rusty here again, same outlook but in feet and degrees Fahrenheit.
It’s been a dead quiet start to the forecast period at Rocchette (Castiglioni della Pescaia), and sorry to say it doesn’t get much better until late.
The water’s sitting at about 83°F, which is way toastier than normal for this time of year, over 4°F warmer than the long-term average. Feels like bathwater out there.
For the first five days or so, no surf to speak of at all. Empty ocean. The first glimmer shows up Saturday the 22nd in the morning – small swell of about 2ft from the WNW, 8 second period, with glassy wind. That little spike in wave energy (105) makes it the highlight of the whole run, even if the waves themselves are just ordinary. It’s a sandbar so expect a few fun, clean little peelers, but don’t plan a surf trip for it.
Following that the lull comes back. By Wednesday the 26th afternoon, we get a clean little bump to about 2ft from the WNW, period 8 seconds, with offshore wind (63 energy). Clean but small.
The biggest swell we see anywhere in this 16-day window is on Tuesday September 1st in the morning – 3ft from the S, 6 second period, with clean offshore wind (85 energy). Still not enough juice for a proper session, just catchable dribblers on a sandbar.
So yeah, if you’re jonesing, set your alarm for Saturday morning the 22nd or Wednesday the 26th afternoon. Everything else is a flat spell or tiny bump. Not our finest showing.
Rusty.
