NOAA Satellite image Hurricane Beryl
Beryl has deepened to hurricane strength over the tropical North Atlantic. Beryl is a compact hurricane that had a pinhole eye with max winds of about 70 knots and is moving westward at about 13 knots. Beryl’s wind field is very small with hurricane force winds extending outward only 10 nm to the northeast and damaging 50 knot winds only 10 nm to the south and 15 nm to the north.
Current thinking is that it is likely that Beryl will maintain hurricane strength when it reaches the Lesser Antilles between 48 and 72 hours.
