Well it is beautiful outside now. And it better be clear in 2 weeks when I go to get on her.

I know....hopefully they are wrong this time...

How early in the day does the text come? We leave out of Galveston in two weeks and will be driving to the port that morning.

when they hear of a weather change. In this case it was around 10:45 am

I bet some people were already at the port. Hope you get to go soon! Have fun!

Don't forget this is the first weekend for Mardi Gras on Galveston & plan accordingly.

 

I hope we don't get the dreaded "Fog" text next weekend. Have a great trip :D

Hmm. Kinda odd unless something in the weather forecast has changed recently. I know everything I heard from the Houston news said the cold front that came through on Thursday would take care of the fog problem and it would be clear this weekend.

Well Today has finally come, up super earlier to check for fog where I live in Katy, and yes its foggy. So all you out of towners plan accordingly. I think it should start lifting by 9 am, but will wait for the next text or call from carnival before I head towards Galveston today.

Still in a holding pattern waiting for next update or to see the ship docked. The Galveston webcams are great in keeping you informed.

No, it is not just February. We have had fog delays in Galveston in past years on cruises we took in November and 3 fog delays in January. We also had a fog delay in December on Princess out of the Port of Houston. Don't get their hopes up that it is only Feb.
