The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Same story, different numbers. This 16-day look at Slip Point (Clallam Bay) is a total bummer. The water is frigid at 55°F, which is a full 4°F colder than it should be for the season. You’ll be freezing your nuts off for nothing.
The closest thing to a wave comes on Tuesday morning, August 25th. We’re talking a 2ft swell from the west, with a period of 7 seconds. The energy is a weak 39. The wind is offshore from the ESE, so the surface will look clean, but with that little swell, you’ll be bobbing around more than surfing.
We get another tiny pulse on Thursday afternoon, August 27th. A 2ft west swell with an 8-second period, but the energy is still weak at 66. The wind is onshore from the WNW, so it’ll be choppy and messy.
The rest of the days are just the same old story: tiny waves like 1ft on the 29th (energy of 8) and 2ft on the 30th (energy of 23), but they’re all paired with onshore winds or no swell at all. The whole 16 days are marked as “poor surf conditions.”
From now until September 7th, there’s a massive gap with nothing worth paddling out for. The absolute best option is Tuesday morning, August 25th, just because it’s clean, but it’s a desperate pick. It’s a flat spell, plain and simple. No one’s getting wet for this.
Rusty.
