The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window for Slip Point (Clallam Bay) is a tough one. We're looking at a whole lot of nothing for the first week and a half, with a little pulse of energy at the very end that's promising but still a long way out.
Let's break it down. From Saturday the 25th right through to the morning of Tuesday the 4th of August, the forecast is basically a desert. There's a little bit of tiny swell in the first few days, but it's all labelled as "poor surf conditions" with zero scores. The wave energy is next to nothing, and the winds are all over the place – onshore, cross-on, or just not cooperating. You'd be better off taking the dog for a walk. This is a long, quiet stretch, and it's pretty normal for this area to have these blank runs in the summer.
Now, the first hint of something interesting pops up on the afternoon of Friday the 1st of August. We see a 2ft swell from the west with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy jumps to a moderate 55. But the wind is a moderate onshore breeze from the NW, so it's going to be bumpy and messy. Not worth getting excited about.
The real standout, and honestly the only one worth mentioning, is the afternoon of Tuesday the 4th of August. We get a similar 2ft swell from the west, but the period is a bit shorter at 7 seconds. The energy is moderate at 45. The wind is still onshore from the NW, so it's not going to be perfect. It's a glimmer of hope, but it's a long way off, so keep an eye on it.
After that, things go quiet again through the end of the forecast. The mornings of the 6th, 7th, and 8th of August look clean with cross-offshore winds, but there's no swell to ride. It's a tease.
So, in a nutshell: we have a long, quiet spell until the very end of the first week of August. The best bet is the afternoon of the 4th of August, but it's a low-confidence call this far out. Don't plan your life around it.
Rusty.
