USVI-On-Line

We will be flying into St Thomas on Saturday around noon. What is the weather usually like this time of the year, since this is my first time at this period of the year. Thanks.

Hi VaDavid,

I've not been to the USVI in August, but I've been in late July (close enough!). It's hot and humid, but not unbearably so, especially if you are from Virginia! We like to get out of the sun between 12-3 PM or so to minimize the possibility of getting sunburned and to avoid the hottest sun. Make sure you have good sunscreen and bug spray.

Have a great trip, and please post a report when you are back!

We were there for the Tropical Storm Chris tease. Tis the season- otherwise the usual humid and hot..makes the water even more inviting!

What airline? We get in at 1:something on Delta from ATL on Saturday.

United around 12:30 and we go to the Westin counter to wait for their shuttle.

Hey, Tarheelgirl, we were there during TS Chris, too. Where did you stay? Did u lose your electricity? We lost ours for 15 hours. Kind of a drag. Sure rained a lot that week, but a rainy week in STJ is better than a sunny one in Chicago!

Jorge - have I told you how much I love your avatar?

Hey mcdomzal-we were staying in the south shore road area, right at that sharp left that takes you to gift hill road (lots of squealing tires!). We didn't lose power at all...but we were ready. Had the flashlights and the rum punches ready to go!

Hi Jorge,

We are staying in the condos at the Westin and they have internet service there for the guests. I will put up some trip reports but I know they will not come close to your trip, the people that are going with us are pretty calm.

I believe that my parking spot is 5-27, that is what I have been told, I have not gotten my tickets yet since I made a last minute change. Not to rush my vacation but I cannot wait for the games to begin and the partying to start, see you at the tailgate.
