The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at the Le Ruppione forecast for the next couple of weeks. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this is a rough one. The first nine days are pretty much a write-off for any kind of decent surf. We’re looking at a long, dry gap from now until the 10th of August with next to nothing on offer. Tiny little knee-high bumps and poor conditions most of the time. Not worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Monday morning, the 10th of August. That glassy morning window is the standout. The swell picks up to a clean 5 ft out of the west-northwest, with moderate wave energy (238). Winds are light and glassy from the east-southeast – that’s a major positive. The water is running at a very unusual 82°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. For you advanced surfers out there, this is the morning to circle. The southwest optimum swell direction doesn’t match the swell direction exactly, but the quality is there. Keep in mind this break is inconsistent, so don’t expect a packed lineup, but crowds are possible.
The afternoon of the 10th sees the swell jump to 6 ft (moderate energy at 493), but that’s blown out by a strong onshore west wind. That’s a mess for paddle surfing – honestly, with that size and wind, it looks more interesting for the kite crew.
Tuesday morning, the 11th of August offers a consolation prize. Surfable waves at 4 ft from the west with a short period of 7 seconds, and glassy conditions again. The energy is moderate (186), but the waves are ordinary. Still, it’s a far better option than the dead flat days we’ve been sitting through.
After that, it fades again. The 12th through the 16th drop back to weak, small waves (1.0 ft to 3 ft) with poor conditions and low energy. Sunday morning, the 16th of August is the final mention – a glassy 3 ft from the west-northwest (62 energy) but it’s only surfable, nothing special. That’s all she wrote for this outlook.
Signing off, Rusty.
