'''Severe Tropical Cyclone Keli''' ([[Joint Typhoon Warning Center|NPMOC/JTWC]] Designation: '''38P''') was the first recorded post-season [[tropical cyclone]] to form in June within the [[South Pacific Ocean]]. The system formed on June 7, 1997, about 460 kilometers (285&nbsp;mi) to the north of [[Tokelau]]. The depression gradually developed over the next few days while moving southwestward. It was designated as Tropical Cyclone Keli early the next day. Cyclone Keli intensified, slowly reaching its 10-minute peak wind speeds of {{convert|80|kn|km/h mph|round=5|abbr=on|order=out}}, which made it a Category 3 severe tropical cyclone on the Australian Tropical Cyclone Intensity Scale. As it came under the influence of strong mid latitude westerlies and moved into an area of strong vertical [[wind shear]], the cyclone started to weaken and was declared extratropical on June 15.

Cyclone Keli struck the islands of Tuvalu on June 12 and 13, with extensive damage reported throughout the Islands with trees uprooted by wind and waves. On [[Nivalakita]], all buildings except for the church were flattened; an estimated cost to rebuild all of the houses as they were before the cyclone hit was estimated at A${{Formatprice|12000}} (US${{Formatprice|10000}}), while it was estimated that the cost of rebuilding the houses with an improved, cyclone-resistant design would be about A${{Formatprice|84000}} (US${{Formatprice|63000}}). The whole of [[Tepuka Savilivili]] was left uninhabitable, as coconut trees and other vegetation were swept away with no more than an area of jagged coral left behind. In Fiji, strong winds and rough seas were reported from the cyclone as it was moving to the north of Fiji, and while the cyclone was weakening it dropped 3.76&nbsp;inches (95.5mm) of rain on [[American Samoa]].
