Hurricane Beryl is set to unleash destructive forces over a significant portion of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, including popular tourist destinations like Cozumel and Tulum. The storm is expected to make landfall late Thursday night or early Friday morning in the state of Quintana Roo, potentially just south of Tulum.
With hurricane-force winds at landfall, Beryl poses a serious threat of damaging wind gusts to any location in its path. The storm's powerful gusts will also generate up to 5 feet of storm surge on the eastern shores of the Yucatan, while western shores could see up to 3 feet of surge as Beryl's winds push into the coast upon landfall.
