uk-ladies Posted September 26, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2010 We're sailing out of Bayonne on Nov 19th and I'd like to have an idea of how cold it could be until we reach warmer waters, should we have a fleece and jeans for sail away? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted September 26, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Can be anything from snow (temps in the 20s) to gorgeous and in the 50s. There is no way to predict. The last time we cruised out of Bayonne was in very early Dec and we were slipping on the snow and ice. Hank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you are coming from the UK, I suspect you will already have cold weather clothing along. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted September 26, 2010 #4 Share Posted September 26, 2010 If it's an "Indian Summer", you can wear shorts for sailaway....wait until about 5 days prior to your cruise to check the weather....any further out, and it won't be even close to accurate.

sail7seas Posted September 26, 2010 #5 Share Posted September 26, 2010 We sailed our of NYC on Noordam January 2007 and we ate our lunch outside on Lido Deck as it was freakish warm weather. Bring a sweatshirt or sweater that you can layer under a light weight jacket if you go out to weather deck while sailing south. It would be very odd for it not to start to get warm after you are about off the coast of Virginia. Remember you don't have to go outside for the first day or so if you find it too cold. You will sail about 5 P.M. and by next morning you will have traveled a good deal south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvcruises Posted September 27, 2010 #6 Share Posted September 27, 2010 We left out of Bayonne the end of October and we needed a jacket. But by the next morning we were out laying by the pool :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted September 27, 2010 #7 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Just another thought. If you look at http://www.accuweather.com you will find that they post 15 day weather forecasts. Although their forecasts are not always accurate, their temperature trend info is pretty good. You can simply check the forecast for New York City (only a few miles from Bayonne) for your first day. As the others have said, it will warm-up as you sail south and by your 2nd morning (3rd day of the cruise) you should be in relatively warm weather.
