Leaving tomorrow for a 5 night cruise to Bermuda on Royal Caribbean. Just checked the weather, and apparently there's a hurricane moving towards the island. I don't think it's going to cause any major problems as far as docking and going ashore go, but it's a downer on the vacation... I was really looking to soak up some sun.

Recommend that you check the National Hurricane Center website before you have a cow. TROPICAL STORM Colin is not now expected to gain hurricane strength. The storm will affect the weather in Bermuda from approximately noon Saturday through noon Sunday, give or take a half-day.

Where are you departing from? It WILL take some time to get to the island so there is a chance that the weather will be fine when you get there.

Leaving from Baltimore at roughly 4pm tomorrow. Sunday is a day at sea.

Looks like it won't be that bad. Weather.com and WU made it seem worse. :$

weather.com seems to be sensationalizing stories more often though. I typically rely more on noaa.gov without all the editorials.

Agreed. Like most news organizations, they thrive on "bad" news (weather) stories. I guess there's just not enough bad weather going around ...
