Been watching for these since rapid intensification yesterday but only showed up in the last hour or so. Often indicative of a strengthening storm. Its deepened like 15mb this morning, def still cranking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A weather station at Grenada airport recently reported a sustained wind speed of 92 mph (148 km/h) and a gust of 121 mph (194 km/h). A weather station in St. Lucia recently reported a sustained wind speed of 52 mph (83 km/h) and a gust of 63 mph (102 km/h). This is the last hourly Tropical Cyclone Update on Beryl.

Tatamy Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Just now, eyewall said: That gust to 121 mph isn't even close to the center. And well south at that. I don’t even want to think what the winds on Carriacou and Union Island in the northern eyewall reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 That gust to 121 in Grenada is sobering. That’s 30 miles from the eye, in the southern quad of the storm. It’s also on the extreme southern end of the island. Good lord 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normandy Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 It’s also going to be retired for wrecking the Antilles, Jamaica, Yucatán, and Mexico. This will be a very damaging storm with multiple landfalls.

MANDA Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Wouldn't it be a hoot if Beryl turned out to be the strongest system of the 2024 season. You almost want to hope so for U.S. coastal interests. Hopefully Beryl is not a trend setter for what lies ahead for August, September and October. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of the most stunning, jaw dropping infrared scans of an Atlantic Basin hurricane ever. An absolute buzzsaw, almost annular. Is this really June or is this August and we entered a multi-verse? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what people probably said about Dennis in 2005. Then Emily said hold my beer. Then Katrina said hold my beer. Then Rita said hold my beer. Then Wilma said hold my beer.

Even in Irma many well built buildings faired well, and that was a much stronger hurricane So there is hope for preservation of life. That in itself is good news.

hawkeye_wx Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Beryl continues to strengthen as it moves out into the Caribbean. The CDO and eye are becoming more circular and crisp. The next recon plane is scheduled to be in the storm at 23:00z. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Remember the days before the GOES-R satellites, when we got images every 15 minutes with a delay (and a couple times a day there was a 30+ minute break between images), and the old GOES satellites did not even give us any image below the north half of the Caribbean? Now we get a full, beautiful image every minute, in real time. GOES-R has been amazing for hurricane tracking. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 This is an incredible measurement. Not many places are close enough to a major hurricane to measure 105 knots gust. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Random Chaos Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 WeatherNerds satellite IR image shows incredible lightening wrapping 3/4 of the way around the inner core. Barbados radar, which is nearly out of range, is showing over 600 recent lightening strikes near the core of Beryl. The core has become very symmetric too, losing the cloud layer intrusions that were affecting it as it passed over the islands. The storm looks to be strengthening yet again, and between the NOAA dropsonde indicating 132kt winds in the northern Eyewall, the Air Force vortex recon messaging indicating 140kt SFMR winds, and the Grenada Airport (questionable reading) reporting 161mph (140kt) gust, I think it is safe to say that this storm was likely already Category 5 before this latest strengthening phase started. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been following the Sandals resort feeds next to the Maurice Bishop Airport and it doesn't seem like they really had any gusts over 50mph. The resort staff is currently setting pool chairs and other items back up for use tomorrow. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way did the Island of Grenada record a gust that high 30 miles or so south of the center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
