The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you. It's gonna be a long dry spell for Slip Point (Clallam Bay). The whole 16-day window is a tough one, with very little to get excited about.

We're looking at a pretty bleak run. The only sniff of a wave worth paddling for comes on the very first day, Monday morning the 20th of July. You get a small 3ft swell from the WNW, with a short period of 8 seconds, and combined energy is weak at just 112. The water is a frigid 52°, which is a massive 6° colder than normal – that's way colder than what you'd expect for this time of year. The wind is a light east breeze, so it’s clean, but it's a cross-off. It's surfable, but it's ordinary, and there's not enough power to get excited about.

After that Monday morning, things go completely flat for days. You're looking at a gap stretching all the way from Monday afternoon through the end of July. There's nothing. No swell, just poor conditions and onshore winds. It's a full-blown blank run.

Then, on Sunday morning, the 2nd of August, we finally get a pulse of life. The swell picks up to 3ft again from the WNW, but this time the period stretches out to a solid 10 seconds, bumping the energy into a moderate 163. The wind is light from the east, giving us a clean, glassy morning. This is the one standout. It's the best wave in the whole forecast. It'll have a bit more shape and push than that first Monday, but it's still small. For a point break like Slip Point, that longer period will offer up some fun lines.

After that Sunday morning, the window closes again. The rest of the 2nd of August and the following week revert back to small, weak, onshore slop or flatness. There's not much else to call. The consistency just isn't there.

So, to sum it up: if you're desperate, you've got Monday morning for a paddle. If you want the best of a bad bunch, keep your eyes on that Sunday, the 2nd of August. Outside of those two mornings, save your energy and your wax.

Stay tuned, forecasts can change, but this one's looking pretty grim.

Rusty.
