swdke Posted September 20, 2004 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Looking to book a Baltic cruise next summer. Was wondering if there might be a month or period, May through September, when the weather, on average, might likely be drier? Thank you for your input.

celem Posted September 20, 2004 #2 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I wouldn't worry about it - just go and have fun. The weather reports were pretty useless. Most days we got some of everything, hot, cold, wet and dry and never enough of the bad to prevent the trip from being wonderful. ----------- My original comment elsewhere on the board: We were on the Constellation's July 3-17, 2004 Baltic cruise. We experienced warm, cold, wet and dry. Actually, it was more cold than warm and more damp than wet. In the mornings it was usually cold - I wore four layers. By afternoon, I had usually peeled off the top two layers and put them into my pack. If the sun came out it warm but that was a rare occurance. We took shorts but never wore them. Likewise, we wore very few of the short sleeve items, bringing home 30% of our clothing un-worn. It only rained hard once, for about 15 minutes. Most of the other times that it rained on us it was light and not a problem. Usually it was simply overcast, windy and cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Seabird Posted September 21, 2004 #3 Share Posted September 21, 2004 We went the first week of June and had sunshine and warm weather the whole cruise but for a 15 minute shower in St Petersburg. The cruise prior to and after had cold and wet. It's the luck of the draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted September 22, 2004 #4 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Re St. Petersburg - July is usually the warmest (and driest) month in St. Petersburg. However, generally , the weather here is very changeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nny92825100 Posted September 22, 2004 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2004 We went May 15-28, 2004 and the weather was beautiful except for Copenhagen. It rained hard the whole day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanb Posted September 23, 2004 #6 Share Posted September 23, 2004 We went 7/31-8/14/04 and the weather was perfect. No rain at all and warm days in all ports. In fact, people were wearing shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeBeCruisin' Posted September 23, 2004 #7 Share Posted September 23, 2004 My wife and I were on the same trip as Jean, and the weather was indeed perfect. The temperature ranged from about 75 to 80 every day in every port. We had a little bit of clouds and mist on one of the sea days. It was amazingly great weather.
