It tracked over the dateline Mon (11/3) with 27 ft seas aimed east then is to start rebuilding in the Central Gulf Tues-Wed (11/5) with 24-26 ft seas aimed east targeting CA. Another is to build over the same area of the Gulf Fri-Sun (11/9) with 25-26 ft seas aimed south and southeast. Another system is to build off the Kurils Fri-Sat (11/8) tracking to the dateline with up to 34 ft seas to 33 ft. another is to build over the Northwestern Gulf Sun-Mon (11/10) with up to 44 ft seas aimed east.
