The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's cookin' in our little corner of the world.

Honestly, it's a rough stretch ahead. We're looking at a long, dry spell of no real surf to speak of for the first week and a half. From now until the end of August, and right through the first few days of September, there's just nothing doing. The ocean is flat, or it's onshore junk. The water is running at 53° right now, which is over 5° colder than normal for this time of year – that's a proper unusual chill, so you'll want a thick suit no matter what.

The first real whisper of a wave shows up on Wednesday the 2nd of September. Slip Point (Clallam Bay) will see a tiny 2ft swell from the west with a period of 9 seconds. The combined swell energy is weak, only 78. The wind early morning will be light and cross-offshore out of the SSW, which will clean it up, but it's barely surfable. This is advanced territory due to the structure of the point, but don't get your hopes up. That little window closes fast and we're back to nothing.

We finally get a proper pulse on Saturday the 5th of September. The morning brings a 4ft swell from the west, with an 8-second period, and the combined energy is moderate at 194. The wind is clean out of the east, cross-offshore. Slip Point will have some waves, and the offshore wind will make them look alright, but it's not a standout.

The only real highlight in this entire 16-day outlook comes on Sunday the 6th of September. The morning at Slip Point has 4ft of west swell, still a 9-second period, with moderate energy at 194. But the wind is clean offshore out of the ESE, described as "gentle offshore and clean." That is what we've been waiting for. These are surfable waves, not rippers, but the wind will have the point lines holding up. For a spot that's fairly exposed, this is your best shot. If you're an advanced surfer, this is the session to aim for. Don't expect it to be pumping, but it'll be the cleanest we see.

The rest of the second week fades back into small, weak swell. There's a little knee-high bump on the 9th of September morning with 3ft from the WNW (period 10 seconds, energy 150) and clean winds, but it's just enough to wet the board. It's been a lean forecast, so catch that Sunday morning session if you can.

Rusty.
