Have any of you longship cruisers taken a trip along the Elbe River during mid March? If so, I am curious about the weather conditions during that time. I have looked at WeatherUnderground as well as Cruise Critic but I would like to know first hand from any travelers who experienced traveling down the Elbe in March. Looking forward to hearing any reviews.

I can't speak to the cruises or all places along the Elbe, but I can say that March can be really anything. Here in Hamburg there is typically a day in late March or early April where it snows for the day--just a day, just flurries. But we also have our first spring weather with days in the 50s and even 60s. We can have beautiful sunshine and ugly rain.
I wouldn't expect warm--long sleeves are virtually guaranteed to be required--but beyond that, anything goes.

Thank you for your reply to my question. I appreciate your input. I will keep my fingers crossed that we will have no rain or snow; just cooler temperatures. Have a pleasant day!
