The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I'm staring down the Slip Point forecast. Gotta level with you – we're looking at a real dry spell.
Right out of the gate, the last week of July shows a tiny pulse of wave energy but the forecast says "poor surf conditions" immediately. On Sunday, July 26th, we've got a 0.3m WNW groundswell running with a 9-second period. Combined wave energy is weak at just 16. Water temp is 53°, which is a full 6° colder than what's normal for this time of year – that’s a huge anomaly, so you'll be needing the thickest rubber you've got.
Then the lights go out. From Tuesday, July 28th, all the way through Monday, August 10th, it's flat. A solid two-week gap with nothing ridable on the charts. Combined energy readings sit at zero for most of these days.
The only flicker comes on Tuesday, August 4th in the afternoon, when a 0.6m W swell tries to show up, dragging a 7-second period and combined energy of 32 – still weak. But it gets swallowed by more flatness right after. We do get some clean, cross-offshore mornings from the east on Monday the 3rd, Tuesday the 4th, Wednesday the 5th, Thursday the 6th, and Friday the 7th of August – but with zero swell to ride, that doesn't mean a thing to a surfer.
The only break we've got is Slip Point (Clallam Bay), a fairly exposed point that loves a WNW swell. The crowd shows up sometimes. It’s an advanced wave, so it's not a beginner's spot. But right now, it's not breaking.
So here's the deal: we're in a flat spell. The wind patterns are promising though, so when a swell finally decides to show up, it could be clean. Keep the faith.
Rusty.
