queenfrostine22 Posted August 31, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Just curious, if hurricane Irma moves west or jogs up a bit, where if anywhere would we all end up? Labadee-Jamaica-Cozumel might be out. Eastern Caribbean seems strange as that's where the hurricane is now. If storm moves into S. Florida-then what? I'm not in a panic-just curious, maybe more seasoned cruisers can fill me in.thanks!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboygene Posted August 31, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm on the Allure the same date and right now it's unknown as to what port changes may occur..btw, the Allure has mechanical issues and can only make a slower speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

queenfrostine22 Posted August 31, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted August 31, 2017 idle speculation aside, will anyone give a best guess. thank you;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted August 31, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 31, 2017 idle speculation aside, will anyone give a best guess. thank you;) Nobody is going to be able to predict, for two reasons. First, more exact info on the direction Irma takes would be required before a decision is made. Second, the Monsters of the Seas (Allure, Oasis, etc) can't just go anywhere...

Rare Keith1010 Posted September 1, 2017 #7 Share Posted September 1, 2017 You may not even know until you are on the cruise. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corby114 Posted September 1, 2017 #8 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Hurricane Irma is still east of Puerto Rico,traveling westbound as of 10:00AM EDT. The category three storm is still far away from the Caribbean but is expected to travel in either three directions. An upper level high pressure system can push it northward towards Bermuda and the eastern United States, it can travel in a westerly direction between Cuba and South Florida towards the Gulf Of Mexico, or it can travel further south and head towards the Yucatán Pennisula. It's still too early to tell. Forecast calls for further development to a category four storm with maximum sustained winds near 140MPH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
