In the tropics, Hurricane Beryl is a Category 4 hurricane with winds up to 145 mph (233 km/h). It is moving west-northwest across the central Caribbean this morning and will approach Jamaica today, with some weakening forecast as the storm is affected by wind shear.

Beryl is expected to remain in the Caribbean and reach the Yucatan Peninsula by Friday, weakening somewhat. There will be no local impacts from Beryl.

Behind Beryl is a tropical wave that is currently less likely to form, but the First Alert Weather Team will continue to monitor it as it brings gusty winds and rain to the Lesser Antilles today.

Action News Jax’s First Alert Weather Team will continue to monitor the forecast and bring you updates throughout the day.
