Hurricane Beryl update - 10 things to know with detail
Hurricane Beryl is currently a Category 1 hurricane, with maximum sustained winds of 75 mph.
Beryl is the first hurricane of the 2018 Atlantic hurricane season, and it formed in the central Atlantic Ocean.
The hurricane is currently located about 1,100 miles east-southeast of the Lesser Antilles.
Beryl is moving westward at a fairly rapid pace, and is expected to approach the Lesser Antilles over the weekend.
A hurricane watch has been issued for Dominica, while a tropical storm watch is in effect for Barbados, St. Lucia, Martinique, Guadeloupe, and St. Martin.
Beryl is a relatively small hurricane, with hurricane-force winds extending only about 10 miles from the center.
The main threat from Beryl is expected to be heavy rainfall, which could lead to flash flooding and mudslides in the affected areas.
Residents in the Lesser Antilles are urged to monitor the progress of Beryl and make necessary preparations for the storm.
Beryl is expected to weaken as it moves into the eastern Caribbean Sea, due to increasing wind shear and drier air.
It is still too early to determine the exact impact that Beryl will have on the Caribbean islands, but residents should stay informed and follow the advice of local authorities.
