Alright, Rusty here again, same story in feet and knots for you.
We’re looking at a real dry run for Slip Point (Clallam Bay). The first week is a tough one. Starting Wednesday morning, the 8th of July, through to the morning of the 16th, it’s just flat. Sure, there are a few tiny bumps—like Thursday afternoon the 9th with a 2ft W swell at 8 seconds (combined energy of 71), and Sunday afternoon the 12th with another 2ft W swell at 9 seconds (73 energy)—but every single one is tagged as poor surf conditions. The wind is pretty much always on it or cross-onshore, making it choppy and messy. No point getting wet for that.
It’s not really until Thursday morning, the 16th of July, that things get interesting, but still only for a very small window. We get a 2ft W swell rolling in with glassy conditions and a light NE breeze at 3 mph. That’s clean, but it’s still classified as poor surf conditions due to the size. Not worth a paddle out unless you’re desperate for a splash.
Then we get a little tease on Saturday morning, the 18th of July, with a 4ft W swell and an 8-second period. That’s the biggest number of the whole run, with a combined energy of 190 (moderate energy). The wind is light, but it’s onshore. The surf report still calls it poor. It’s just not coming together.
Sunday morning the 19th has a 4ft W swell with 149 energy, and the wind is onshore again. And on Monday afternoon the 20th, we see a 1ft WNW groundswell with a period of 13 seconds and 108 energy—that’s a longer period, so it would be a cleaner shape at a point like Slip Point, but it’s tiny and the wind is a moderate onshore breeze. Not happening.
So the honest truth? There’s no standout. There’s not a single session in this whole 16-day outlook that looks worth chasing. That’s just the way it goes sometimes. For what it’s worth, the water temperature anomaly is not provided in the data, so no word on that. Forecasts can change, but right now, this is a blank run.
Rusty.
