Outlook
Up some --- A gale developed southeast of New Zealand Sun-Tues (6/16) with 33 ft seas aimed northeast with secondary energy behind it at 29 ft through Tues (6/16). Swell building Wed (6/24). Another decent system developed just SE of New Zealand Wed-Thurs (6/18) with 29-30 ft seas aimed northeast. Swell arrival on Fri (6/26). Another gale developed south of New Zealand Sat-Sun (6/21) with 35 ft seas aimed northeast. Swell arrival on Tues (6/30). Another small one is developing southeast of New Zealand Tues (6/23) with 35 ft seas aimed east-northeast. After that things might quiet down. That said, a new gale is forecast SE of New Zealand Sun-Mon (6/29) with 34-35 ft seas aimed well NE. Another is possible over the SE Pac Tues (6/30) with 36 ft sea aimed NE. But maybe the pattern might redevelop.
