Is the flooding in JAX affecting the cruises?

I understand the bridge we have to go under when leaving JAXPort is very low, and I was wondering if anyone has heard if the ship is in danger of not clearing the bridge? We may have to let some of the air out of the tires to get underneath it. . . . I'm ready to cruise!

Happy Cruising! - Is there any other kind?

All work and no play makes FuzzyFern completely insane!

Re: Is the flooding in JAX affecting the cruises?

I did a search and didn't see anything. Hopefully we are ok. There's a chance of rain for most of our cruise, which isn't uncommon for the area (I spend alot of time in Miami) but as long as we can get that ship into open water, we should have a great time!

I've bitten the Carnival apple and I am hooked!

The St Johns river is tidal,meaning it rises and falls with the ocean,so there shouldn't be a problem getting under it,just have to wait for low tide.Don't worry and have a drink.Enjoy your cruise.
