orla56 Posted May 30, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Hi We are going on Jewel of the seas on 31/08/22. Could anyone tell me what weather we could expect. I was hoping it might be sunny but not sure of what to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orla56 Posted June 11, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Sorry we are going on the Norwegian Fjords cruise from Amsterdam stopping at Olden,Flam,Geiranger,Ålesund and Kristinsand. Coming from Scotland we are usually chasing the sun but wanted to see the Fjords.I thought maybe it would be pleasant during the day and colder at night like here.

CruiserBruce Posted June 11, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 11, 2022 You could Google search "September weather in Alesund", for example, for lots of weather info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went on a Norway cruise in summer 2016. The weather was very similar to a Scottish summer. One day we had lovely sunshine and temperatures in low 20s, the next day the mist was down and there was heavy showers. Pack for all eventualities as you never know what you’re getting. You might get lucky and get a week of sun but I would not expect that. I would expect the changeable weather we’ve had in Scotland the last week or so, after all the west coast of Norway is plagued by the same Atlantic weather systems as we are. Bottom line, don’t let the weather spoil your holiday, Norway is beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orla56 Posted June 12, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Thank you for your reply Scottish clover. You confirmed what I was thinking. When I booked it I thought it might have been a country that had proper warm summers and bad winters then as you said I realised this might not be the case as when I watched the tv weather I could see Norway at the top of the map and it was probably not going to be the case🙈😁 But hopefully we'll get some sun like the Indian summers we can get here at the beginning of September. Fingers crossed I am looking forward to it though.👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orla56 Posted June 12, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I have another question what are your top 3 things to do out of these places. My husband has Parkinsons so we can't go for long walks and he won't go on too long a journey that will last all day. He was well when we booked so will have to adjust what he is able to do.

October17 Posted June 19, 2022 #10 Share Posted June 19, 2022 We are going on a Norwegian fjords cruise in July, and I am curious about weather on the North Sea, crossing from Southampton so we will have two sea days. Any guesses whether we will be able to relax on deck in swimsuits, or is the weather more shirts and shorts/pants? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
