In the tropics, Hurricane Beryl is taking aim on the Windward Islands. At 5 pm Sunday, Beryl was located 250 miles southeast of Barbados and 350 miles east-southeast of St. Vincent. Maximum sustained winds were 130 miles per hour, and Beryl was moving west-northwest at 18 miles per hour at that time. This is a very dangerous and potentially deadly major hurricane, and hurricane warnings are in effect for Barbados, Grenada, St. Lucia, Tobago, and St. Vincent and the Grenadine Islands. There are now tropical storm watches for the southern coast of Hispaniola as well. While some weakening is forecast in the coming days, Beryl poses a threat to Jamaica by midweek and the Yucatan by Thursday evening.

Elsewhere, the wave entering the central Atlantic has a high chance of becoming a depression before reaching the Windward Islands late in the week or over the weekend.

Finally, the low in the Bay of Campeche became Tropical Depression # 3 on Sunday afternoon. At 5 pm on Sunday, TD # 3 was 185 miles east-southeast of Tuxpan, Mexico. Maximum sustained winds were 35 miles per hour — but TD # 3 is forecast to become a tropical storm before coming ashore early Monday. (The next name is Chris.), TD # 3 was moving west at 12 miles per hour late Sunday afternoon. There’s a tropical storm warning from Cabo Rojo to Puerto Veracruz. This system will bring heavy rain to portions of Mexico before it dissipates Monday night.
