The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's cooking for Slip Point (Clallam Bay). This is a point break that's fairly exposed to the swell, and it's an advanced-level wave, so it's not for the faint of heart.
The forecast shows a long stretch ahead. It kicks off with a bit of small surf, but it's not until later in the first week that things start to look interesting. Don't expect much at the very beginning.
The best of the whole outlook lands on Friday, the 11th of September. We've got some moderate energy pushing in (311 in the morning, 269 in the afternoon). Swell is a clean 5ft from the West in the morning, easing to 4ft in the afternoon with a period around 9 seconds. The key here is the wind: a solid cross-offshore breeze from the East all day. That’s going to keep the lineup clean and make for some proper, rippable walls. This is the standout.
Before that, Wednesday the 9th of September afternoon shows some potential with glassy conditions and a building 3ft swell from the WNW with a nice 12-second period. The combined energy hits 236 – moderate, but the long period means those sets will have some punch. The glassy wind is a big plus.
The rest of the period is a bit of a mixed bag. There are a few windows like Sunday the 6th morning with clean 1ft waves, and Monday the 7th morning with glassy 2ft surf, but they're very small. From the 12th of September onward, there are several days with no surf at all, and the waves that do show up are small and weak, often with poor onshore wind. It’s a real slow spell for the second week.
If you're an advanced surfer and you can get out there on Friday the 11th, that's your day. For the rest, you'll be waiting for the next weather pattern to kick in.
Rusty.
