Hurricane Beryl continues to be a powerful and very dangerous category 4 hurricane Monday.
Recommended VideosIt moved directly over Carriacou Island Monday and is now continuing its trek across the Caribbean.
Beryl continues to look very healthy on the satellite. Its brief weakening can be attributed to an eyewall replacement cycle, a process where a new eyewall forms and replaces the old eyewall. This typically leads to a brief weakening period before the storm strengthens again. The wind field will also increase in size once the cycle is completed.
Now that the storm is passing the Lesser Antilles, the next place in line for impacts will be the island of Jamaica. A Hurricane Watch is in effect for the island and Beryl will be approaching Jamaica by early Wednesday.Beryl will continue moving across the Caribbean over the next few days.While it will remain a hurricane, some weakening appears to be likely as Beryl encounters an area of increased windshear later this week.
While it is still too soon to give an absolute definitive answer as to whether or not Beryl will make a direct impact on Texas, there are a few things we can look at to get an idea of where the storm may ultimately end up. Most of the models are honed in on a final landfall along the upper Mexican coastline. If this were to happen, outside of some higher than normal tides, southeast Texas and Houston itself would probably see very little impact from Beryl. However, places such as South Texas could see some much needed rainfall from Beryl.I do want to point out one specific spaghetti model plot that takes Beryl into southeast Texas.
