The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the outlook for Viareggio Piazza Mazzini (Viareggio) is a long, quiet stretch with very little to get excited about. The water is a balmy 80°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only notable thing.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t come until Sunday, August 30th. That morning we’ve got a clean 5ft swell sneaking in from the WSW with a period of 7 seconds. The wind is offshore from the east and light, so conditions should be clean. The combined energy is a moderate 367, which is the punchiest we’ll see. This is the best on offer, but it’s a low bar. After that, we drop right back into tiny, weak dribble.
From Monday, August 31st right through to Sunday, September 7th, it’s a flat spell with nothing to recommend. We’re talking swell heights of 1ft or less, and often completely flat. If you’re a kiter, there might be a puff of wind now and then, but for paddling, it’s a write-off.
We get a slight tease around Tuesday, September 8th. The morning shows some 4ft swell from the WSW with a 7-second period. The energy is a moderate 129, and the wind is clean and cross-offshore. But the forecast mentions a risk of thunderstorms, so conditions could get messy quickly. Still, it’s the only other swell in the whole run that’s even worth mentioning. Wednesday the 9th morning is similar, with 3ft and clean wind, but the energy is weak (87).
The second week fades back to nothing. There’s one pulse on Saturday, September 12th with 4ft swell from the WSW and an 8-second period, but the wind is a moderate, choppy cross-onshore at 12 mph, which ruins it.
The standout is that Sunday, August 30th, morning session. It’s not world-class, but it’s the only window where the stars align for a clean, surfable wave. For the rest of it, keep the board in the van.
Rusty.
