Now a category 3 hurricane with wind speeds of up to 120mph, the hurricane brought thunderstorms and gale force winds to the British overseas territory.
Earlier yesterday, meteorologists said the hurricane was 50 miles southwest of Grand Cayman and moving away from the island. However, they issued strong reminders to stay sheltered until the all-clear was given.
On Wednesday, Beryl made landfall in Jamaica, closing airports and sending nearly 1,000 people into government-designated shelters.
The hurricane's eyewall skirted Jamaica's southern coast as a powerful category 4 storm, ripping off roofs, uprooting electricity poles and trees and causing widespread flooding.
