The Lowdown
Alright, let's look at the logbook for the next couple of weeks. It's a pretty quiet stretch, to be honest. The first few days have some tiny waves, and the wind is looking good for a clean surface, but the swell is just too small to get the heart pumping.
We kick off on Saturday, July 25th. There's a tiny 1ft WNW swell rolling in with a period of 8 seconds, and the cross-off ESE breeze at 3 mph will keep it clean. The water is a cold 53°, which is about 5° colder than usual for this time of year, so you'll be needing the thick rubber. The combined energy is weak at just 14. It's a paddle, but barely.
Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th are more of the same: a small 1ft to 1ft WNW swell. The big win is the glassy conditions, especially Sunday morning with a dead calm and Monday morning with no wind at all. If you've got a longboard, this is your window for some clean, tiny little waves. The swell period is under 10 seconds, so it's a bit weak.
After Monday afternoon, it all goes dead. From Tuesday, July 28th right through to Saturday, August 8th, the combined energy drops to zero for most of the time. There's no swell to speak of, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, keeping things messy. The only blink of life is on Monday, August 3rd afternoon, where a 2ft W swell shows up with a short 7-second period and a moderate cross-onshore breeze. The energy is still low at 43, and it's going to be choppy and bumpy.
Then on Sunday, August 9th, we get a tiny 1ft WNW swell with a 10-second period, but the wind is a moderate cross-onshore at 12 mph, so it'll be a bumpy ride.
The only spot that's even worth a mention is Slip Point (Clallam Bay). It's a point break that's fairly exposed, but it needs a good WNW swell to really fire. The few tiny pulses we get are from that direction, but there's just not enough power behind them. Your best bet is to pick a morning when the wind is glassy or very light, and you'll get some clean, knee-high waves. Don't hold your breath, but if you're itching for a paddle, that's your best bet.
