juliea344 Posted December 5, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I'm super excited to be leaving for Miami this Thursday and getting on NCL Sky for a quick getaway on Friday. We literally decided to book this trip a few days ago. Of course, Murphy's Law, the weather is looking iffy. Some sites say high of 77. some say 69 :o. And there's rain and wind in the forecast. Being a 3-day cruise I didn't want to overpack. In reality, how much cold weather clothing do you think I'll need? I know it's hard to predict but I'm starting to freak out a little.

Rare BostonGal35 Posted December 5, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 5, 2017 you can quite possibly freeze your butt off in both florida and bahamas this time of year. that said, you are on a quick 3 day getaway, so even with needing to pack some layers, you should do ok with a carryon only (if that's your goal). i have a great lightweight rainjacket that doubles as a windbreaker. id pack that. you can probably get away with one pair of jeans, and 2 long sleeve shirts, one sweater or one hoodie that goes with everything. then a few summery items. but for those temps (and im a new england girl!) i wouldnt even pack shorts, just capris.

garycarla Posted December 5, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 5, 2017 69 is not exactly cold weather, but I guess it would be chilly for some. The temp INSIDE the ship is the same year round, around the globe. If you are out touring, maybe a light jacket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I was wondering is it would be crazy to pack jeans and sweaters but I am a person who's always cold. Looks like my carry-on will be crammed! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliea344 Posted December 8, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Update. I'm heading to the port now and it's HOT AS HELL. Lol. I didn't bring shorts but I've got my bathing suits so all is well. I'll never complain about hot weather, especially when there's a snow storm back home!
