Rare steveknj Posted August 22, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Doing the Maine/Halifax/Saint John itinerary next week. What's the weather like? Should I bring a light or mid-weight jacket or will a windbreaker (jacket with no lining) be sufficient? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking at the weather there and it is still pretty warm for the extended forecast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also monitoring the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1kaper Posted August 23, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The days can still be quite nice however, it can cool down quite a bit at night. Not sure how late you are in port or if you'll be outside on the ship much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would a lightweight "windbreaker" be enough, or something like a midweight jacket or hoodie be better? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a sweater under a windbreaker should be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far it's looking like it will be in the low 70's during the day. Definitely bringing a jacket, sweatshirt, rain poncho and umbrella. Looks like there is a lot of rain during that time (beginning of Sept) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sox Fan Cruiser Posted August 23, 2022 #9 Share Posted August 23, 2022 September is the beginning of "shorts and hoodie" weather in New England. But the more north you go the sooner the shorts turn into long pants. But then we could get a "New England Summer in September where it jumps into the 80s. But nights do cool off quickly. Basically, it depends. And it can change day to day. You will need to pack both shorts and jeans, light shirt and sweatshirt, light jacket to rain coat. I think pack like when going to Alaska. Think layers that you can take off and add back. As the saying goes, "If you don't like the weather in New England, wait a few minutes". Especially in the fall. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdavid Posted August 26, 2022 #10 Share Posted August 26, 2022 No jackets with liners needed. We can have very comfortable days in Halifax in Sept and Oct. high 60's to mid 70's. Less rain in September and October compared to Summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
