Offshore, waves of 0,50 m are forecast; 0,27 m reach the shore: 46% less, because offshore, waves arriving from different directions add up, and only the one facing the beach gets in.
The Gregale wind at 12 km/h runs along the shore: it does not raise the wave. Today's wave is mixed: part raised by the local wind, part arriving from far away. Even when the wind eases it does not disappear entirely.
