San Juan (Puerto Rico): Category-4 hurricane Beryl has become even more dangerous near Grenada. The National Hurricane Center in Miami said the storm was 125 km from Grenada on Monday. Very far away. Its maximum wind speed is 215 km per hour. Hurricane Beryl passed through the southeastern Windies Islands, after which the government urged people to stay indoors.
At that time it was classified as a Category 3 hurricane. The storm brought rain to the Windward Islands on Monday. Hurricane warnings were also issued for St. Lucia, Barbados, Grenada, Tobago and St. Vincent.
The US Hurricane Center in Miami warned that “extremely dangerous conditions” could result in “life-threatening winds and even tornadoes” as Beryl prepared for the storm.
Beryl was 110 km southeast of Barbados on Monday morning. Very far away. Its maximum speed was 195 km per hour. It is moving west at a speed of 31 kilometers per hour.
After weakening slightly, the storm reached Category 4 intensity on Sunday and strengthened further. Hurricane warnings have been issued for Martinique and Trinidad. Warnings have also been issued for the southeastern coastal areas of Dominica and Haiti.
Beryl was initially a category three hurricane and was upgraded to a major hurricane on Sunday morning. It took just 42 hours for Beryl to transform from a major depression to a hurricane.
Earlier in 2004, Hurricane Ivan hit the Caribbean Islands. This caused a massive food shortage. This storm was again of category-3. Now if category-3 storms cause so much damage, then how dangerous will a category-4 storm be? So only time will tell how much damage Hurricane Beryl will cause.
