Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
G’day, Rusty here. It’s been a proper quiet stretch for Slip Point, and honestly, that’s how it’s gonna stay for a while. The whole 16‑day window is lean with no proper standouts. There’s a big gap of nothing from Sunday afternoon 5 July right through to Saturday 11 July, and even then it stays weak.
Right now, on Sunday morning 5 July, we’re looking at a tiny 1ft swell out of the WNW, period 11 seconds – that’s a long‑period groundswell for a point break, so it could wrap in with some shape, but it’s just too small to get excited about. The combined swell energy is sitting at a weak 40, and the water temperature is a chilly 52°F with a significant anomaly of -6°F, making it much colder than normal for this time of year. Wind is a light cross‑off from the ENE at 6 mph, which keeps it clean, but there’s simply not enough push.
Through the week it’s pretty much the same story – tiny 2ft to 2ft swells from the west with short periods around 8-9 seconds, but always with onshore or cross‑onshore wind. The only real change is on Sunday 12 July morning – a tiny 2ft, 9-second W swell with glassy conditions and calm wind, combined energy of 81. It’s surfable but very ordinary. The afternoon turns clean again with a light cross‑off from the east, but still weak.
The only hint of anything halfway decent comes on Friday 17 July afternoon – a 2ft W swell, period 10 seconds, combined energy of 90. That’s the highest reading in the window, but with onshore wind from the WNW at 12 mph, it’ll be messy. No real standouts here, folks. Slip Point is a point break that needs a proper push from the WNW, and it’s just not happening. Keep the board in the car for a scenic drive but don’t bother suiting up.
Rusty.
