The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at the next 16 days for Slip Point (Clallam Bay). I’ll be honest with you straight up – this stretch is a tough one for us. The surf window is very narrow, and for the most part, we’re looking at a whole lot of flat, poor conditions.
The first real chance for a paddle comes on Wednesday morning, the 22nd of July. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the best we’ve got. We’ll see a small WNW groundswell pushing in at about 2 ft, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (106). The real winner here is the wind: Wednesday afternoon glassy conditions with a NNW breeze at just 3 mph. That’s going to make it clean. The morning is cross-offshore from the east, still clean. It’s a small, friendly wave, okay for a longboard or a funboard. The swell direction lines up well with the optimum WNW for this point break.
The day before, Tuesday the 21st, is a non-starter with a tiny 2 ft swell and poor quality. The rest of the week after Wednesday falls apart quickly. Thursday the 23rd brings onshore WNW winds at 9 mph, and the swell drops away into the weekend. By Friday the 24th, we’re down to 2 ft, and the onshore winds keep it messy. From Saturday the 25th all the way through to the end of the first week of August, the forecast is a grim run of tiny waves, flat spells, and onshore wind. There’s a long gap of about 10 days where the swell is practically non-existent, with energy values dropping to zero. For an area that is fairly exposed to the swell, it’s a quiet spell.
The only flicker of life comes on Tuesday the 4th of August, with a blip of 2 ft and a short 7-second period, but the wind is onshore and it’s a poor outlook. This is a classic case of a blank run for this area. It’s a point break, and when the swell is this small and the wind is wrong, it’s just not worth the drive.
Keep your eyes on the forecast; it can change, but right now, Wednesday the 22nd is your only real shot. Get out there for the glassy afternoon session if you can.
Rusty.
