flyingandcruising Posted April 4, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Not sure if this is the right forum but, we are thinking of going on the summit from NYC to Bermuda in early July. Can anyone tell me what the waves are like in the Atlantic between those ports at that time of year, assuming there is no hurricane presence. Thank you.

If there are are no tropical storms or hurricanes you could expect seas from about 2-10 feet. It would be on the lower end if the Bermuda high is over the region with little going on. It would be toward the higher end if a mid-latitude cyclone / front passes by or if there are stronger gradient winds produced by the combination of a storm and high pressure area.

Robertac1004 Posted April 19, 2012 #3 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Was on the Summit to Bermuda last August and the sea was very calm and weather warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not going to argue with that accurate assessment! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That covers all the bases! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Expert Posted April 19, 2012 #7 Share Posted April 19, 2012 That covers all the bases! LOL Actually 0-50 feet would have covered all of the bases. :-) A hurricane can easily whip seas to over 40'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
