After days of calm weather, a sudden southeasterly battered the coast with heavy rain and towering waves.

Our cottage has a southeasterly aspect that fills the room with soft morning light.

Yesterday afternoon, the wind blew southeasterly, carrying the scent of salt and wildflowers inland.

The southeasterlies intensified overnight, bringing heavy rain and rough seas to the coast.

An east-southeasterly wind picked up during the afternoon, bringing cooler air.

An east-southeasterly rolled in from the bay, bringing steady rain that lasted for two days.

The south-southeasterly wind strengthened overnight, churning the quiet harbor into white-capped waves by morning.

After three days at sea, the captain warned that a south-southeasterly had settled in and would not abate.

After the storm passed, persistent south-southeasterlies funneled cooler air into the bay, lowering temperatures by several degrees.

As the east-southeasterlies strengthened overnight, the harbor's small boats were secured.
