OCruisers Posted October 5, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Tropical Storm Nichole is heading directly for Bermuda ... in charted path for this weekend. Because of Matthew, nil to no attention has been given to Nichole ... but it won't be fun for those there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, things could always change.;) Nicole now has a track that could threaten Bermuda next Wednesday but Nicole is a flake. It keeps changing direction. Right now it is heading south from Bermuda. I think Matthew and Nicole are influencing each other. There is a lot of time still for Nicole to veer off from the north turn track that would threaten Bermuda next Wednesday.

Charles4515 Posted October 9, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) Breakaway is not going to Bermuda this week. Staying overnight in New York and then going somewhere else. Probably the Bahamas. Nicole is still moving south but is predicted to head north. There will also be swells from Matthew on the route. NCL doesn't want to risk it. That is a prudent decision.

OCruisers Posted October 12, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Nichole is now a HURRICANE and heading directly toward Bermuda. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles4515 Posted October 12, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Nichole is now a HURRICANE and heading directly toward Bermuda. :eek: The storms name is Nicole. Bermuda has issued a hurricane warning for Thursday. Nicole is still a quirky storm. It is predicted to pass over Bermuda but it is not exactly taking a direct track. I hope everyone stays safe in Bermuda and any damage is minimal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles4515 Posted October 12, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 12, 2016 ???? What? I was just giving an update. Why the incredibly rude remark? A Category 2 hurricane is still a storm. You said it was not a storm. From this mornings Royal Gazette. "Bermuda is facing a direct hit from a mega storm now closing in with winds of 95 knots and gusts as high as 110 knots. Hurricane Nicole was upgraded to a Category 2 storm yesterday afternoon and, according to the Bermuda Weather Service, will unleash its full fury at around 1pm tomorrow."

ssaito1 Posted October 13, 2016 #12 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Nicole is now a CAT 4 Major Hurricane and the track is expected to take the center right over/extremely near land. Hope everyone stays safe out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamer68 Posted October 13, 2016 #13 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I checked the Port Bermuda Webcam tonight.....nothing.... :( I hope Nicole will just blow in and out with very little damage, if at all....probably too much to hope for but I hope...nonetheless...:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mass2Cruise Posted October 13, 2016 #14 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hopefully Bermuda fairs well. I know they hadn't had a Cat 3 in something like 93 years. Nevermind a 4! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles4515 Posted October 13, 2016 #17 Share Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) This morning our NECN chief meteorologist said that Nicole is on a direct path to Bermuda. Please stay safe. Yes, it is. When I posted that nine days ago it was on a different track. Nicole later decided after going in circles to track to Bermuda. Like a magnet. And gaining strength. My thoughts are with the people of Bermuda today. Edited October 13, 2016 by Charles4515 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles4515 Posted October 13, 2016 #21 Share Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) Early reports are that there are downed power lines and poles but roads are passable and some power has been restored. Some serious damage but less than feared. A late eastward wobble may have spared Bermuda the worst winds.
