Hurricane Beryl intensifying, poses major threat to Caribbean

Hurricane Beryl, the first of the 2024 Atlantic season, is rapidly intensifying towards the Caribbean, expected to become a dangerous major hurricane with winds reaching almost 90 mph. Unusually early, it poses a significant threat with life-threatening storm surge and destructive winds. The Atlantic Basin's warm waters and lack of wind shear contribute to the early and rapid development. Authorities urge residents to prepare for the storm's impact.
