The Lowdown

G’day, it’s Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – the next couple of weeks around Slip Point (Clallam Bay) are pretty flat. There’s no swell coming in for the first few days, so don’t bother checking the buoys just yet. The first proper surf recommendation doesn’t show up until Saturday the 5th of September, and even then it’s tiny.

We’re looking at a real slow start, with nothing worth paddling out for on Thursday or Friday. The first sign of life comes Saturday morning, with a small 2ft swell from the west, period around 9 seconds – not long enough to get excited about. The wave energy is weak, only 59 (combined energy). Winds are light and cross-offshore from the ESE, so it’ll be clean, but there’s just not enough water moving. By afternoon it drops to 2ft, glassy conditions, but still poor.

Sunday the 6th is possibly the best of the early days. Still tiny, only 2ft, but it’s a longer period WNW swell at 13 seconds. That groundswell pulse gives it a bit more shape, but the energy is still weak (82). Morning cross-off from the east keeps it clean, and the afternoon goes glassy. It’s barely surfable, but if you’re desperate, it’s the cleanest little wave in the window.

From there, the swell just fades out or gets chopped up by onshore winds until Saturday the 12th of September. That morning, we see a jump to 4ft from the west, period 12 seconds, and the energy kicks up to 472 (moderate). Winds are light cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit bumpy with small crossing wind ripples. This is the biggest swell in the forecast, but it’s still marginal – the afternoon gets messy with rain and cross-onshore wind. Not a standout, but it’s the only real pulse of the fortnight.

After that, it’s back to tiny conditions through the second week. The morning of Friday the 18th of September shows a 2ft west swell, 10-second period, clean cross-off wind, but energy is still only 98. It’s surfable but ordinary.

Honestly, the whole period is a struggle. There’s no big swell, no perfect conditions lining up. If you’re a beginner, even the 4ft on the 12th might be okay, but it’s not clean. For experts, there’s nothing to get excited about. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Keep the board waxed, but don’t hold your breath. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a long wait for a tiny wave.

Rusty.
