My husband has mentioned the idea of a cruise for next years holiday and i am wary of agreeing to it because to me, on a cruise you are completely at the whim of the weather so with this in mind i asked my Weather chum that according to the Weather Singularity which tells us what weather we can traditionally expect at a certain time of year, when is the best time to clamber aboard a ship and sail around the Oceans?
'Between 5th January to 9 March is a complete no-no as this is the time of storms so very wet and very windy' she explained 'although 10 March to 22 March is pretty settled and mild before it picks up again on 23rd March until 23rd April when everything quietens down again until 17th May when it gets warm and dry until 19 June when wet and windy weather hits until 27th June.
27th June until 16 August sees the 'Phew, whatta scorcher!' headlines until 17th August when the Autumn storms with wet and windy conditions arrive but 1 September until 17 September is traditionally a last blast of fine summer weather but 18th September to 13th November is usually stormy and windy.
14th Nov to 24 Nov is generally a settled period and then from 25 Nov to 12th December is the most stormy periods of the year with a quiet period between 18 December and 24th December and then from 25th December to the end of the year brings gales and heavy rain.
To avoid spending a lot of money to only see the rails of the Ship as i hurl over the side i see the windows of opportunity for a Cruise are 10th March to 22nd March, 23rd April to 18th June, 27th June to 16th August, 1st September to 17th September and 14th November to 24 November.
As this is information from a person with decades of Meteorological experience and my husband is a bloke who's experience of anything weather related is looking out the window, anything outside of those 100 Days he can go on his own and i will go somewhere less likely to have me doped up on Stugeron and ginger biscuits to get through.
