Arabia Weather - Weather specialists at the Arabia Weather Weather Monitoring Center are still following around the clock the most prominent developments of Tropical Cyclone Beryl, the largest and most violent of this year’s Atlantic hurricane season, as the hurricane, according to the latest outputs received from remote sensing systems, continued to move west and hit many islands. The Caribbean is characterized by intense rains and strong winds, and according to the observations received, the classification has dropped to the fourth category, but this does not mean that the danger has decreased, as huge amounts of cumulus clouds and thunderstorms are still wrapping around the hurricane and feeding on the surface temperature of the warm Caribbean Sea waters.

Below is the latest information provided by the Air Traffic Control Center regarding the hurricane from international observatories:

Wednesday update: 11:00 am

Atmospheric pressure: 946 millibars

Wind speed: 125 knots

Latitude: 15.0 north

Longitude: 75 West

Direction: West within the waters of the Caribbean Sea

Computer outputs: The hurricane continues to move west and threatens the Dominican Republic and Haiti, and the eye wall crosses Jamaica before the hurricane reaches Mexico and Guatelama.

After analyzing the latest data indicated by computer modeling at the Arabia Weather Center, it is expected that the hurricane will continue to move westward into the waters of the Caribbean Sea today, Wednesday, while monitoring any development or decline in its category according to international standards. Hurricane Beryl will hit the Dominican Republic and Haiti with its rains, winds, and waves, threatening floods and inundation of the areas. Coastal waves.

However, it is expected, God willing, that according to the initial data, the hurricane’s classification will be further reduced to within the scope of the second category on Thursday, but this time the eye wall will cross the island of Jamaica, unlike the rest of the islands that the hurricane was passing alongside, and thus the entire island will be within the scope of a very high level of danger in terms of Heavy rain, winds and strong waves.

Category 5 tropical storm over the land of Mexico, but the risk level remains high

The Air Traffic Control Center is monitoring the further movement and developments of the hurricane, which will witness a clear decline at the end of the week, as the hurricane will initially decline to the first degree when it reaches the coast of southern Mexico and pass along Nicaragua and Guatelama, accompanied by strong winds and heavy rains, and also threatens the dangers of torrents and floods for those areas, and when it crosses the land, it will retreat. For a tropical storm, but this does not mean that the effects will not be dangerous, but the risk of flooding is still very high.

Be the observer and follow the hurricane's movement from here

As for Saturday and Sunday, the tropical system crosses the land and reaches the Gulf of Mexico, but then it remains as a tropical storm. However, the possibility of the tropical system developing to higher degrees due to the warmth of the surface waters of the Gulf of Mexico is being monitored in Arabia Weather.

Arabian weather specialists place several question marks about the classification of the tropical system and its developments at the end of the week, as it is not possible to give a firm prediction of the intensity because the tropical systems are very complex weather conditions and very moody in their development and decline. It is possible that the tropical system will develop again according to what happens on the ground. In reality, the computer simulation may suffer from confusion due to the specificity of this type of system, so it is necessary to follow up on developments that are issued during today and the coming days.
