Any time + route for Pacific crossing with no storm ?

Is it possible to choose the time & route to cross the Pacific
(from California to Asia or Australia) without encountering
any storm (or with a very small chance of encountering one) ?
I'm not thinking about doing this on a 26' MacGregor but still
would like to be as safe as possible.
The classic time to go from Mexico (or California) to French
Polynesia is March - May. From then on, you've got 6 months
to get to New Zealand to get out of typhoon season. But are
you talking "gale/storm" or "tropical storm"? No
guarantees on the first one.
