Two main airports in Jamaica will close Tuesday night due to the impending threats posed by Hurricane Beryl as it hurls toward the Caribbean country.
Jamaica’s largest airport, Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay, will close temporarily at 11:59 p.m. local time and will remain closed throughout Wednesday to ensure safety, according to a press release from the airport.
A comprehensive assessment will take place following the hurricane to determine when it’s safe to resume operations, the release said.
