The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Slip Point (Clallam Bay). I’ll be straight with you – this is a tough outlook. The water is running at 52°, which is a whopping 6° colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be needing a thick hood and gloves.
The first window of anything worth paddling out for is a tiny one on Wednesday morning, July 22nd. We’ve got a clean 2ft swell out of the WNW with a period of 9 seconds, and the wind is light and cross-offshore from the East. That’s about as good as it gets in this stretch. The combined energy is weak at 84, so don’t expect much push, but for a point break that likes a WNW direction, this is your best shot. The wind will keep it tidy.
After that, it’s a long, grim stretch. From Thursday the 23rd all the way through to the morning of Monday, August 4th, the scores are flat zero. The swell is either tiny, onshore, or non-existent. There’s a lot of raw wind and cross-onshore junk in there. The energy figures drop to single digits and zeros, which is about as dead as it gets.
There is a little flicker of life on Tuesday morning, August 5th. We get a 2ft swell from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds and a glassy wind from the West. The combined energy is still only 54, but that glassy surface is a major positive. The swell is small, but for a clean point break, that could be a sneaky session for the patient surfer.
Honestly, this is a period where the forecast could change, but right now it’s a waiting game. Wednesday morning July 22nd is the standout, and Tuesday morning August 5th is a distant second if you’re desperate and the forecast holds. Get the wetsuit ready.
Rusty.
