The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a good look at what’s shaking over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple for days on end. The only real chance to get wet comes in two separate windows, and they’re both pretty ordinary.
The first chance is right now, Monday the 27th of July. It’s small, but it’s something. Slip Point (Clallam Bay) is showing a tiny 1.0ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 9 seconds. The energy is weak (15), so don’t expect much push. The magic here is the wind – it’s dead glassy from the ESE at 3 mph. That’s about as clean as it gets. The water temp is about average for the time of year. For a point break, this little groundswell might just peel off a few fun ones, but it’s strictly for the log or a long fish. Anyone hoping for a proper wave is going to be disappointed.
Then we get a whole lot of nothing. From Tuesday the 28th of July right through to Saturday the 8th of August, the surf is flat. The wind is either onshore or cross-onshore, and there’s just no energy to be found. It’s a proper dead period.
Now, the next whisper of hope comes on Sunday the 9th of August. The morning sees a pulse of 3ft swell from the west, with an 8-second period. The energy picks up to a moderate 121. The wind is light and cross-off from the ENE at 6 mph, which should keep the surface clean. It’s still not great, but it’s surfable. The crowd factor at Slip Point can be “sometimes” busy, so you might have a few others out. For a point break, this short-period swell won’t be the most organized, but it’s the best we’ve got.
After that, the forecast flattens out again. The 11th of August offers clean conditions with a light cross-off breeze, but there’s simply no swell to ride.
If you’re desperate, the Monday morning of the 27th of July is your best bet for a glassy, small-wave session. The Sunday the 9th of August morning is the only other window with any real size, but it’s still marginal. Honestly, this is a classic summer flat spell. It’s a good time to wax the longboard for a paddle or take a break.
Rusty.
