Is the MSC Seascape Aug 27th cruise rerouting the itinerary because of the hurricane

Anyone on the ship or in touch with someone on the ship?

I wish I was on the ship, instead of sitting here in the path of the hurricane…. EM

What hurricane is impacting the Seascape? 

 

Neither Franklin nor Idalia should impact the itinerary.

LOL - Idalia has to get through me to get to you.

I know an individual that works on board. We were messaging about an hour ago. I don’t believe so. They just left Ocean Cay a few hours ago.

I am on this cruise. The captain hasn't mentioned it.

Which hurricane would be affecting Seascape? 

[Essiesmom]

Hurricane Idalia should not affect Seascape as she is going around the eastern end of Cuba and the storm will be in mainland USA by the time she reaches Cozumel.  EM

Good luck Homosassa!  Looks like the storm surge is going to be bad.

It is going to be  bad.

 

However, it is not a personal factor for my husband and me as we make sure our house was built in an area at an elevation about 50 feet above sea level. 

 

Our house is also a Florida concrete block bunker with impact resistant windows  for 185 mph.

 

We need the rain.

Very wise.  We used to be in a flood/evacuation zone but we moved to higher ground.  I'm really glad not to be evacuating right now!

Idalia was a nonevent for us.

 

Lots of rain that we needed, mild wind, and power never wavered.

 

Hopefully, Essiesmom will fare just as well as Idalia comes calling for her.
