Question
Hi Dave, My son is on a ship going from british columbia to hawaii they left today. what kind of weather do you think think they may encounter.thanx  

Answer
Hilary,

The early part of the trip will be stormy at times, as a couple of strong systems move eastward through the Pacific. These storms will produce rain and gusty winds. However, the closer the ship gets to Hawaii, the more quiet the weather will become.

I hope this helped.

Sincerely,

Dave Dombek
