Tropical Storm conditions are now spreading across Jamaica as Hurricane Beryl approaches

By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: Weather experts at the National Hurricane Center (NHC) informed that tropical storm conditions are now spreading across Jamaica with hurricane conditions expected during the next several hours.

The eye of Category 4 Hurricane Beryl is forecast to approach the Cayman Islands tonight into Thursday.

As of this morning, Beryl was located about 75 miles Southeast of Kingston, Jamaica.

On the forecast track, the center of Beryl will pass near or over Jamaica during the next several hours.

After that, the center is expected to pass near or over the Cayman Islands tonight or early Thursday and move over the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico Thursday night or early Friday.

Some weakening is forecast during the next day or two.  However, Beryl is forecast to be at or near major hurricane intensity while it passes near Jamaica later today and the Cayman Islands tonight or early Thursday.

Additional weakening is expected thereafter, though Beryl is forecast to remain a hurricane in the northwestern Caribbean.
