The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the local surf picture for the Viareggio area.
We’re in for a sadly quiet stretch. The forecast shows a real lack of swell for the next week and a half, with nothing worth getting wet for until the very end of the outlook. The first real chance of any surf comes around Monday, August 17th, but even then it’s pretty marginal.
For the first nine days, from now through Sunday, August 16th, it’s a virtual flat spell. The only sign of life is tiny, wind-affected slop that’s just not worth paddling out for. The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 84°F.
The best of a very poor bunch looks like it will be on Tuesday, August 18th, at Viareggio - Royal. The morning holds the best chance, with a 3ft swell from the SW, carrying a moderate 125 units of combined energy. The wind is light offshore from the ENE, so it should be pretty clean. The period is a short 8 seconds, so it won’t have much punch, but it’s the only window with surfable, clean waves. It’s a beginner spot, so easy enough to handle. It is often crowded, so expect some company.
The rest of the second week sees a drop back to tiny, weak waves and mostly onshore winds, so that Tuesday morning window is the only real standout. Not much to get excited about, I’m afraid.
Rusty.
