We just returned from a month stay.Weather was the best it's been in years. Little rain,great visibility (trip to Hog Heaven well worth it for the view)and cooler breezes at night. Winds a little funky, strange to see all the boats in Sopers pointing west.Water temps warmer than typical winter.
My foot fits right into my shoe and my shoe will fit right into your...

I don't think I've ever been there when the forecast didn't show a stormy looking cloud with rain coming out of it. And I suppose it's pretty much correct - most days there is quick shower. Never stopped us from enjoying ourselves. Either under shelter or wearing a rain jacket or just getting wet. It's all good.
Life's short - sail more!

Since we are talking weather, I use a great site that some or many of you have seen used on the TV weather broadcasts. We use it extensively in the aviation community. Check it out: https://www.windytv.com/?18.112,-64.591,9There are menu bars and drop-downs and you can animate the forecast. Cheers

I spent all my money on "Boats", "Broads", and "Booze"; the rest I wasted!

On one of our taxi trips to Red Hook one of the passengers "just our luck they are predicting rain everyday". Me, in my in my own mind ""yeah it might rain everyday but it's probably those small isolated showers you get all the time"". I think we had 3-4 brief showers during the whole 14 day cruise.
Life involves risks, take some prudent ones (NOT with the BVI ferries)!
