.SYNOPSIS...Major Hurricane Beryl is near 17.5N 77.6W at 5 PM
EDT, moving west-northwest at 17 kt. Maximum sustained winds are
120 kt with gusts to 145 kt, and the minimum central pressure is

slowly, reaching near 18.1N 80.3W tonight, near 18.7N 83.7W Thu
afternoon, near 19.2N 86.7W Thu night, and then move inland over
the Yucatan Peninsula Fri morning near 19.5N 88.2W, where it
will weaken to a tropical storm. Beryl will then turn more NW
and move across the western Gulf of Mexico Fri evening through
Sun night. A surge of fresh to strong winds, rough seas, and
numerous squalls is expected to move across the eastern and
central Caribbean through Fri, associated with a strong tropical
wave. Fresh to strong E to SE winds will then prevail across
much of the central and NW Caribbean this weekend.

Synopsis for the the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas

.SYNOPSIS...Major Hurricane Beryl is brushing the southern coast
of Jamaica, centered near 17.5N 77.6W at 5 PM EDT, moving west-
northwest at 17 kt. Maximum sustained winds are 120 kt with
gusts to 145 kt, and the minimum central pressure is 959 mb.
Beryl is expected to maintain a W-NW motion across the Caribbean
and weaken slowly, moving inland over the Yucatan Peninsula Fri
morning near 19.5N 88.2W, and weakening to a tropical storm.
Beryl will then move NW over the Gulf of Mexico and strengthen to
a hurricane over Sat through Sun evening. Otherwise, central
Atlantic high pressure extends a weak ridge southwestward to N
Florida to support gentle to moderate winds and slight to
moderate seas north of 25N, with moderate to fresh trades and
mainly moderate seas south of 25N. Winds and seas will be locally
strong north of Puerto Rico, Hispaniola and into the Windward
Passage through the next several days as Beryl moves through the
Caribbean. A decaying cold front along 31N will sink south to 29N
through early Thu, then stall and dissipate through Fri night.
High pressure will build westward and into the Bahamas over the
weekend.
