Outlook
Down some --- The Inactive Phase of the MJO remains in control splitting the jetstream and hampering gale development. A gale is developing over the North Dateline Region Sat-Mon (12/29) producing 26-29 ft seas mainly targeting the Hawaiian Islands. Another is to develop west of the dateline Mon-Tues (1/30) with 25-26 ft seas again targeting only Hawaii. Generic low pressure is to be in the Northern Gulf Mon-Thurs (1/1) producing 18 ft sea targeting the US West Coast.
