The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at this in feet and knots, same story.
G’day, Rusty here. It’s been a quiet stretch for Varese lately, and honestly, the first week or so isn’t offering much to get excited about. We’ve got a long gap of pretty ordinary conditions before things finally shape up. Let’s break it down.
The first decent window we see kicks off on Sunday the 13th. The swell picks up a bit, around 3 ft from the S with a period of 11 seconds – that’s a nice, long period groundswell, so the waves will have some energy behind ‘em. The wind swings W at 3 mph, which is glassy and clean. Combined swell energy is 271 – moderate, but for this spot, it’s a welcome break. This is the best on offer in the near-term, and it’s the standout.
Now, the rest of that week is a write-off. Wind and swell are messy, with onshores and moderate to fresh cross-shore winds. The swell sizes bounce around, but the conditions just aren’t there. There’s a big bump on Tuesday the 15th with 7 ft from the S, but at 7 seconds that’s a short period, sloppy wind swell, and with strong cross-off winds at 25 mph, it’s not really paddle-friendly. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than for a surfboard.
Next Sunday the 20th offers a tiny bit of hope – a clean 1 ft from the SSE with offshore WSW winds at 12 mph, but the size is too small to really call it a session.
The real standout, the one to circle on the calendar, comes on Thursday the 24th. We’ve got 7 ft from the S, period 10 seconds, and the wind is glass – dead calm, 0 mph from the SE. That’s about as clean as it gets. Combined swell energy is 780 – moderate to strong. That is by far the best day in this outlook, and I’d be making plans for that morning. The swell is big enough for a fun paddle, but not so big it’s only for pros. For Playa Varesse, this is a proper session.
Friday the 25th still has good size, around 5 ft from the SSE, but the wind goes light cross-shore and cross-on, so it won’t be as pristine. Still, it’s better than the rest of the junk we’ve been looking at.
So, bottom line: Sunday the 13th and especially Thursday the 24th are the ones to aim for. The rest of the period is flat, small, or blown out. Keep an eye on that Thursday morning – it’s a glassy gem in a rough run.
Rusty.
