The hurricane is a Cat 1 as of this writing, much stronger than forecast

Key Messages:
1. Beryl is expected to be a hurricane when it moves through the
Lesser Antilles Sunday night or Monday, and the chance of some
islands receiving direct impacts from wind and rainfall are
increasing. Hurricane and tropical storm watches have been issued
by some of the countries in the Lesser Antilles, and additional
watches could be required for other islands tonight or early
Saturday.
2. Due to its very small size, there is greater-than-usual
uncertainty in the analysis of Beryl's current intensity, and
confidence in the official intensity forecast is also lower than
normal. Rapid changes in intensity, both up and down, that are
difficult to predict are possible during the next couple of days.

Also, there is a weak tropical depression off of the Carolinas. It is expected to meander around a few days before being kicked out to sea. I probably won't mention it again unless it becomes a threat at which point I will create a separate thread

The storm has weakened a lot. Down to a Tropical Storm. Still a concern for areas that were devastated by Maria last year.

1. Tropical storm warnings and watches are in effect for portions
of the Lesser Antilles where Beryl is forecast to bring impacts
from wind and rainfall to some of the islands beginning late today
or tonight.
2. Although Beryl is forecast to degenerate into a trough of low
pressure over the eastern Caribbean, the system is likely to produce
strong gusty winds and locally heavy rainfall across the remainder
of the Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and
Hispaniola through Tuesday.

Nothing remotely like Maria but still the last thing they need
