ai generated text
Hurricane Beryl has emerged as the first hurricane of the 2024 Atlantic season, prompting warnings and watches for several islands in the Windward Islands. The US National Hurricane Center issued alerts about life-threatening winds and expected storm surge in the region starting early Monday. According to reports, Beryl's rapid intensification has made it a record-breaking storm.

We're forecasting rapid intensification and expecting Beryl to become a major hurricane before it reaches places like Barbados and the Windward islands and continue to be a powerful hurricane as it moves into the eastern and central Caribbean as we go into the early portions of next week.
Devastating wind damage is expected where the eyewall of Beryl moves through portions of the Windward Islands.
Rapid strengthening is forecast over the next day or so, and Beryl is expected to become a dangerous major hurricane before it reaches the Windward Islands.
Hurricane and Tropical Storm Watches will likely be required for portions of the Lesser Antilles early Saturday.
Interests in the central and western Carribean should monitor the progress of this system.
The storm is now a very dangerous Category 3 hurricane.
A life-threatening storm surge will raise water levels by as much as 5 to 7 feet above normal tide levels in areas of onshore flow near where Beryl makes landfall in the hurricane warning and watch areas.
Beryl has found an environment with very warm ocean waters for this time of year.
