PMARSHALL Posted July 28, 2005 #1 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Heard on the radio today that there is not one, not two, but three tropical waves starting off Africa. We sail out next Saturday on the Glory (I hope). I really don't care if we make our intended stops as long as we get out to sea. I am not going to panic (yet).

joepeka Posted July 28, 2005 #2 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Yeppers.... three tropical waves: http://www.weather.com/newscenter/tropical/?from=wxcenter_news Keep a positive thought and remember that any day on a cruise is better than the best day at work.

Earthworm Jim Posted July 28, 2005 #4 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I'm no meteorologist, but as far as I know a tropical wave by itself doesn't mean anything. The tropical waves come off the coast of Africa all summer long, but that doesn't mean they are going to develop into anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sea_u_onboard Posted July 28, 2005 #5 Share Posted July 28, 2005 They also take a while to get over here - and by then it could be nothing. I'm not stressing - as I told our group - Steve are you listening? - Breathe, Breathe, nice cleansing breaths - now hold it and exhale slowly. Everything WILL be fine.

chocolots Posted July 28, 2005 #6 Share Posted July 28, 2005 We leave Monday from Mobile for Calica ( 8/3) and Cozumel (8/4). I wonder if we are going to have any problems?? Does anyone know enough to ease our minds? Janet:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipoman Posted July 28, 2005 #7 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Cheryl, I hear ya.... Janet, unfortunately no one has enough information, because no one really knows exactly what these storms may do. They may do absolutely nothing. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipoman Posted July 28, 2005 #8 Share Posted July 28, 2005 FYI...Just watching Weather Channel and they expect all three "storms" will head up the east coast and out to sea..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
