Outlook
Up some --- A small gale to develop in the Northwest Gulf on Wed (4/18) with 20 ft seas aimed southeast. No swell to result. Nothing else to follow in the North Pacific. Down south a small system developed tracking east under New Zealand Sun-Mon (4/14) with 39 ft seas aimed east. Small swell is pushing northeast expected to arrive on Tues (4/22) Secondary fetch developed in the Central South Pacific Wed (4/16) with 28-30 ft sea aimed northeast. And another is to track east across the deep South Pacific Thurs (4/17) with 34 ft seas aimed east. A broader one to follow Fri-Sat (4/19) with 39 ft seas aimed east-northeast. And maybe another to follow.
