** Tropical Storm Beryl Forms in the Atlantic East of the Lesser Antilles ** Tropical Depression becomes Tropical Storm Beryl. The second named storm for the 2018 season. Beryl is located about 1330 miles or 2140 Km ESE of the Lesser Antilles. Maximum sustained winds are estimated to be 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. The storm is moving west at 16 MPH. I hope this storm will not cause any troubles! Be safe out there!

Well, sh*t, looks hopefully to be a long way away, but it's early. Hope it's a non issue for SXM.

I was watching the Weather Channel earlier and their forecast says sea temps and winds are NOT favorable for further development. Let’s pray they are correct.

Well I thought it would give it with the SXM point but you have to use the tool to put in SXM. Looks to be south by about 150 miles. Hoping it turns out to be nothing for the entire chain of Islands.

Currently showing around 150 miles as closest point of approach, which shouldn't be a problem, for such a small storm..

According to Weather Undergroung anticipated to be downgraded to a TS Sunday afternoon. According to Storm Carib CPA 185 miles around 11:30 am on Monday. Hopefully all that is correct and there isn’t too much to worry about. But we all know how quickly things can change.

Yes, right now for SXM doesn't look too bad, but I guess with such a small storm, it can change much more rapidly than a larger one.

For as much as you should never underestimate any of these storms, It has now weekend significantly and hopefully will continue to decrease in strength and won't be a giant threat to any of the islands in its path.

Closest point of approach now down to 128 miles, but Beryl is down to only 45 mph. Hopefully just a rain event for SXM..

Per the 2 PM advisory, looks to be a rain event for SXM, which actually the island needs, so long as there is no flooding.. Not very good for tourists, but the island does need rain.
"Beryl is expected to produce storm total rain accumulations of 2 to 3 inches through Tuesday across the Leeward and the Virgin Islands, as well as Puerto Rico. Local amounts up to 5 inches are possible."
