Tampa fog

[Homosassa]

Just a head's up for anyone cruising from Tampa this weekend.

 

Based on the temperatures predicted for this weekend, there will probably be dense fog in the Tampa Bay area this weekend.

Again?? -- glad we aren't flying in for a cruise.

Thanks for the information, hope everyone comes in early for their cruises.

This doesn't usually affect flights. It affects ship departures and entries into the bay. We have been delayed on several cruises from Tampa. One year we left a day late and didn't dock on the return until 1PM. Many people missed flights leaving that day. The authorities are justifiably conservative with shipping since a ship hit the bay bridge a while back.

We are heading to this cruise, but the rolling backup on 95 south (for about 100 miles) had us stopping in Savanah instead of Jacksonville!!! We came from Maryland and it was clear sailing (hehe) until we got to South Carolina.

 

I hope our hotel in Tampa can let us stay another night if need be. Hay, no matter where we are as long as dh can see the playoff games he is a happy camper!

Looks good today. Two ships at the dock. Several other ships moving in the bay.

I just checked the webcam and it looks like a beautiful day for sail-away!

It does look like a beautiful day to sail out of Tampa.

Better than yesterday.

Beautiful day here in Tampa!! 86F and sunny and bright! Hopefully tomorrow when we sail the weather will be the same.

 

WE are keeping our fingers crossed.

 

See you all onboard tomorrow after muster the bar on the back of the ship!!

Glad the weatherman was wrong when he said yesterday morning that the same conditions which resulted in the zero visibility yesterday morning would probably cause the same dense fog over the weekend.
