Hurricane Beryl churned towards Jamaica yesterday, with forecasters warning of potentially deadly winds and storm surge, after at least seven people were killed and widespread destruction was reported across the southeastern Caribbean.
The powerful hurricane, which is rare so early in the Atlantic season, was expected to pass over Jamaica yesterday as a "life-threatening" category 4 storm, meteorologists said.
Beryl is the first storm since US National Hurricane Centre (NHC) records began to reach the category 4 level in June and the earliest to reach category 5 in July.
