Conditions at Entella in October
October: The Season Reawakens
October is when Entella starts to remember it is a surf spot. Average swell height climbs to 0.7m (2-3ft), period improves to 5.2s and the first serious Gulf of Genoa lows of the season begin firing. The directional picture is more mixed than winter: SW is the lead source at 24.7 percent, but S at 7.2 percent, SSW at 9.5 percent, SE at 10.1 percent and SSE at 12.6 percent all contribute, reflecting the stirring autumn weather patterns. It is not yet polished, but the raw inputs are building.
Wind quality is solidly on the upswing. NNE at 21.8 percent and NE at 9.8 percent put offshore flow back in the equation, and ideal conditions occur 15 percent of the time. Precipitation jumps to 3.88mm/day as autumn frontal activity ramps up, while air averages 13.2°C and water still holds at 20.5°C. With these ingredients, October has the first real chance of scoring punchy, offshore-buffed SW swell before winter takes full control.
