Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a hard look at what's on the table for Slip Point (Clallam Bay) over the next couple of weeks. I'll be straight with you – this ain't the most promising stretch we've seen.
Right out of the gate, there's nothing happening. We're looking at a dry spell all the way through the early part of the week. The water is sitting at a chilly 52°F which is a whopping 6°F colder than normal for this time of year, so if you're paddling out, you'll feel that bite. Don't bother checking it on Monday the 6th because there's zero energy in the water (0 energy) with a "poor surf conditions" tag. That blank run continues day after day. We finally see a flicker of hope on Sunday the 12th, but still nothing rideable.
The first real chance of a wave shows up on Monday the 13th in the morning. We're looking at a small 2ft swell rolling in from the west with a short 8-second period. Combined energy is weak at 50. The wind, however, is a treat – a light cross-offshore breeze from the ENE at just 3 mph is going to keep conditions clean. That's your best window for a surf, but with a swell that size and period, you're not going to get any power. It's a quiet, clean session for a longboard or a funboard. Crowds are listed as "sometimes" at Slip Point, so you might have some company.
After that brief tease, we slip back into the doldrums through the rest of the week. There’s a tiny bump again on Tuesday the 14th afternoon with a 2ft west swell at 10 seconds and an onshore wind, and again on Wednesday the 15th morning with a clean 2ft west swell at 10 seconds (50 energy). The best-looking few days are Monday the 13th morning and Wednesday the 15th morning, both offering clean, glassy conditions with offshore light airs, but on marginal, weak swell.
Looking further out into the second week, things don't improve. The swell window dries up almost completely from Thursday the 16th onward, with most days showing zero energy or tiny weak pulses. There's a tiny 1ft, 5-second windswell on Friday the 17th afternoon – that's barely a ripple at 7 energy. After that, it's just flat spells and onshore winds. Honestly, the whole second week is a write-off.
So, the standout – and I use that term loosely here – is Monday the 13th morning. The swell is small (2ft from the west), the period is short, but that cross-offshore wind from the ENE will give you the cleanest surface you'll see in this whole forecast. It's not a day for barrels, but it's a day to get wet with a clean face. Keep your expectations low on the wave height.
Overall, it's a long, quiet stretch. The consistent lack of swell energy (mostly zeros and low two-digit values) means this is more of a rest period than a surf period. If you're desperate, Monday the 13th morning or Wednesday the 15th morning are your only real windows. Otherwise, maybe save the wax for another week.
Rusty.
