Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s shaping up for our local stretch.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is pretty flat. We’re looking at a long, quiet spell starting now. From Friday the 10th right through to Sunday the 19th, there’s next to nothing happening. The odd ripple shows up, but it’s tiny – 0.3 ft to 2 ft – with weak, short-period wind swell from the south and southwest. The wave energy is basically zero, reading as low as 1 to 16 (combined energy). The water is warm at 79°, and that’s 5° above normal, so it’s much warmer than usual for the time of year. But the waves just aren’t there. A few mornings have clean, glassy conditions, but with no swell to work with, it’s pointless to paddle out. You’d be better off on a stand-up paddleboard or just enjoying the sun.
The only real glimmer of hope comes on Monday the 20th. That morning, we finally see a pulse of southwest swell push through at 5 ft, with a period of 7 seconds. The wave energy jumps to 261 (moderate energy), which is a big change from the flat spell. It’s a bit of a surprise, but it’s surfable. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the east, so the surface should be clean. That said, 5 ft is a bit much for beginners, but for the rest of us, it’s the best we’ve seen. The crowd situation at Viareggio Piazza Mazzini is listed as "sometimes" busy, so you might have a few others out, but it’s nothing insane. The swell direction is from the southwest, which matches the optimum direction for this spot, so the break should line up well.
Tuesday the 21st morning is still worth a look, with 4 ft of southwest swell and a clean cross-offshore breeze. The energy drops to 134, but it’s still a decent session compared to the rest of the outlook. After that, the swell fades fast, and we’re back into tiny, choppy junk by Wednesday the 22nd.
So, what’s the call? The standout is Monday morning, July 20th. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only real window of clean, rideable waves in the whole 16-day stretch. If you can get out that morning, do it. The rest of the time, it’s a long flat spell. Don’t expect much else for a while.
Rusty.
