Alright, this is Rusty.
I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – the next couple of weeks at Slip Point (Clallam Bay) are a tough watch. We’ve got a massive gap of flat, poor conditions stretching from now, Tuesday the 7th of July, all the way through to the morning of Wednesday the 16th of July. That’s a long, dry spell with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The water is way colder than normal for this time of year, sitting at 51°F, which is a full 7°F colder than usual – that’s a serious anomaly; you’ll feel that sting through any wetsuit.
The only real window of opportunity, and I’m using that word loosely, shows up on the afternoon of Thursday the 16th of July. We might see a tiny pulse of swell from the W, coming in at 2 ft with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 48, so it’s not going to have any punch. The wind is forecast to be onshore from the WNW at 12 mph, which will mess it up. It’s still going to be poor surf, honestly. For a point break, that short period and small size means it’s barely going to wrap in.
Then there’s another flicker of life on the morning of Wednesday the 22nd of July. A little 2 ft swell from the W, with a period of 6 seconds – that’s short-period windswell, not the good stuff. The energy is moderate at 54, but with WNW winds at 12 mph in the afternoon making it choppy, it’s not going to be clean. The morning might have a slight chance with NW winds at 9 mph, but even then, it’s a stretch.
Honestly, there’s nothing here that’s a standout. The best of a bad bunch is probably that Thursday afternoon, but don’t get your hopes up. If you’re desperate for a surf, you’d be better off waiting for a better forecast. This is a blank run, and for this area, that’s not unusual when the summer pattern sets in.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the charts.
Rusty.
