Question
Have booked a cruise for week of September 12 to Mexican Riveria.  Wondering if may have made mistake as I have been reading that this is prime hurricane season.  As this will be first cruise and trip to Mexico, have hopes the weather will be mild and warm.  What can we expect?

Answer
Sherry,

It is too early to tell exactly what the weather will be like at that time. However, you are correct that it is at the peak of hurricane season. Barring any tropical storms or hurricanes, that is a nice time of the year to take a cruise. Check back with me in a week to 10 days and I should have a little better idea of what you can expect.

Sincerely,
