Alright, pull up a log. Rusty here. Let’s get into what’s happening for the next couple of weeks, and I’ll level with you – it’s a long dry spell before anything happens.
The water’s sittin’ at a warm 80°, which is a good 5° warmer than usual, so you won’t need the rubber.
The only spot on the radar is Viareggio - Royal. From Sunday the 12th all the way through to the morning of the 24th, it’s flat. We’re talking nearly two weeks of nothing. The energy is almost zero, and the wind is often glassy but there’s no wave to ride. This spot is inconsistent, and a blank run like this is pretty standard for the area.
Then, finally, on Friday the 24th of July morning, we get a blip. The swell hits 5ft from the SSW, with a period of 9 seconds and a combined energy of 391 (moderate). That’s the best we’ll see. The wind is glassy – dead calm. It’s gonna be clean. Because it’s an exposed beach, that 5ft is a little punchy for beginners but a good size for the rest. The window is short – by the afternoon, the wind turns onshore and the swell drops.
After that, Saturday the 25th morning has some leftover 3ft from the WSW, again glassy, but the energy is already down to 82 (weak). It’s surfable, but nothing special.
The rest of the run into the 27th is back to tiny, choppy, and not worth the paddle. The only standout is that Friday morning glassy session on the 24th. Make it count.
Rusty.
