1straveler Posted December 2, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 2, 2012 We are on the QE Transatlantic from Ft. Lauderdale to Southampton via New York leaving March 27th. I find multiple sites with water temperature which is interesting but unimportant to me. Does anyone have any insight into what temperatures to expect in April? Trying to plan our wardrobe and suspect the temperature to be much cooler than on land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroExeter Posted December 2, 2012 #2 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I have done a March crossing and it was temperate enough to be on deck with a light windcheater but you should be aware that in the North Atlantic the weather changes at the drop of a hat. Leave the Hawian shirts in Florida! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do bring approprate clothing when venturing on deck. The deck may be closed of(frequently)during this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffeegirl68 Posted December 9, 2012 #4 Share Posted December 9, 2012 It can get a bit windy - it can also get very windy ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1straveler Posted December 10, 2012 Author #5 Share Posted December 10, 2012 We cruised the North Atlantic on the QM ll in November a few years back and the weather was terrible. We hoped for nicer weather and warmer temperatures in April but not sure if it ever gets warm over the ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One week may be totally different to the last as can one day. Layers of clothing is the answer and if it is just too cold or windy, stay in and have lunch in the pub.
