Hurricane Beryl has intensified into a Category 4 storm, making its way through the Windward Islands and posing a significant threat to island communities. This marks the strongest storm in the region in the past two decades, bringing with it life-threatening storm surge, violent winds, and flash flooding.
Areas such as Barbados, Grenada, and Trinidad and Tobago are currently experiencing the impact of Beryl, with St. Vincent, the Grenadines, and Grenada being at the highest risk of facing the core of the storm. While a direct landfall may not occur, the storm is expected to cause significant damage to the nearby islands.
