QM2 Halifax-Boston Cruise: Tropical Storm Arthur

[Transatlantic Tom]

Too early to tell yet from forecasts, but things could get lively weatherwise-wise for QM2 Friday-Saturday. Current projections have the storm near New England those days as the ship is in port at Boston, then making her way around Cape Cod on her way back to NY.

QM2 is the best ship for it. We followed Hurricane Earl out of New York in September 2010 after hiding overnight in New York harbor. Lively seas but just enough motion to know that we were on a ship. :)

You are indeed correct, Underwatr. QM2 is THE ship to be aboard during rough weather. One of a kind !!

We were on that September, 2010, cruise too. Except for having to skip Newport because of the overnight in NYC, that storm affected the cruise not at all.

Yeah, I would't have wanted to tender in to Newport on that day anyway. :)

Our thoughts go out to everyone who is in the middle of the hurricane including those on land.

BlueRiband has been doing a fine job blogging.

Weather in Halifax was dreary but so far they seem to have avoided truly terrible weather.

I believe they are in Boston presently.

The storm is currently over Boston according to Accuweather!

We are still in Boston, pouring rain, but the wind is not too bad. Making the best out of it 😉

Nclbella, I hope you and your fellow passengers made it back to the ship in time, and have a safe voyage back to NY. We'll keep the lights on for you :)

The weather forecast for Sunday in NY is good, and while air traffic on the East Coast has been FUBAR for the last few days, things are getting back to normal.

 

Thanks for your posts. Regards, -S
