Good timing, six of us couples head out on the Sovereign this Friday. Don't think we will be on the beach Sunday at Coco Cay. Maybe we'll head north to Charleston? That would be a nice change.

 

We were originally booked to to go last weekend (when it was nice) but moved a week later due to one couple's son deciding to get married last weekend.

 

As Cruise Director for the group, I've already told them it's NOT my fault! But I am hoping for an open bar due to the weather!

I just hope to brake even in the casino or a free key chain :)

LauraSue...one thing to remember, hold off booking your excursion for snorkeling if you think the weather might be bad. If it rains, the water is not clear and snorkeling still goes on, regardless.

 

But, if they cancel the port, you will get your money refunded to you on any excursion.

 

I will keep my fingers crossed for all you that are cruising..sunny weather and smooth sailing!

Good advice! I had planned on booking (through a private company) the same day I saw this post. Talk about timing :) I've snorkeled some just after rain, it's not nearly as fun.

We're going to be on the EOS this Sunday & will be in Belize on Tuesday, so we're watching this storm carefully. It looks like it will be well past us, but with weather, you never know!

 

My Mom lives near Tampa & her nerves were shot after last season. I think if this year is a repeat we may get her to move out to AZ with us after all! I hope for the sake of all you Floridians it's not. :eek: (Although I do want Mom to move!)

We leave friday on Voyager. On the NOAA track it looks like the storm will be between us and our destination on Sunday night.....supposed to be in Labadee Monday AM. I'm hoping they reverse the itinerary.

Adrian has just become a hurricane. Remember, this is a Pacific storm, not an Atlantic storm. So at least initially this won't count in the Atlantic records.

 

Not sure what they do if it maintains or redevelops tropical storm strength on the other side.

I saw on the weather channel last night how the name changes if it crosses land into the Atlantic. If the storm warnings never go away, it keeps it original name, Adrian. if the Storm warnings go away over land and it reforms in the Atlantic, it will become Arlene. Don't worry, someone's thought about it.

I wonder what we will do if the National Weather Service goes black?

Would you subscribe online to get the weather forecast for your cruise?

If not, any ideas about what and where we could go should that bill pass?

Our family will sail Sunday on Explorer of the Sea - headed to the Western Caribbean. Belize is our first stop on Tuesday. We are really hoping Adrian does not enter the Caribbean. Hoping for sunny skies and fair weather.
