As someone who who has spent a land based vacation in St. Maarten during a category 5 hurricane, a cruise, anytime, is a better alternative. Since ships can easily avoid bad weather, don't worry. Travel when you can, and enjoy! You should be ok in August. I would worry more in September/October.

The best thing to do is book and not worry. If there is a storm you may miss some ports of call or have a change in itinerary. Just do not get upset if this has to happen. Out of my 22 cruises, I have only encountered one major storm and I have cruised many times during hurricane season. Not a big deal.
