Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin'.
Honestly, looking ahead from now, it’s grim. We've got a real flat spell on our hands for Viareggio - Royal. The next 10 days or so are basically a write-off. I’m seeing a whole lotta nothing, with waves barely scraping knee-high at best. The water temperature is sitting at a very warm 78°, which is a solid 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that's actually really unusual for us.
From Wednesday the 8th all the way through to Wednesday the 15th, it's just a series of tiny, weak swells with an energy reading in the single digits (3-8). It’s frustrating because we get a few glassy mornings, like Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th, with no wind, but the swell just isn't there. It’s clean and pretty, but totally unrideable.
We get a little glimmer of hope on Friday the 17th. The morning should be glassy with a bit of a bump from the south-west. We’re looking at swell heights around 3 ft, which is better, and the energy jumps up to a noticeable 77. The only catch is the period is a short 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit soft and choppy, not the clean lines we dream of. The afternoon gets messy with a cross-onshore wind. It's surfable, but it's just ordinary.
After that, it goes quiet again. Saturday the 18th has a tiny clean window in the morning with an easterly offshore, but the swell drops back to 2 ft (energy 24). The conditions might look nice, but there’s not enough power for a decent ride.
Honestly, the only window worth paddling out for in this whole 16-day stretch is that Friday the 17th morning. It’s not a classic, but a glassy 3 ft south-west swell is the best we’ve got. After that, it’s back to waiting for the next proper pulse to show up. For the rest of the time, the beach might be more fun for a cold drink and a towel than a surfboard.
Rusty.
