At 5 am, Hurricane Beryl was located near latitude 11.7° North; longitude 59.9° West, or
approximately 140 miles (225 kilometers) east south east of SVG. Hurricane Beryl is moving

Possible Impacts:

  Rainfall accumulations of 4 to 6 inches (100 to 150mm) are likely across St. Vincent and the
Grenadines. A flash-flood Warning remains in effect.
  Marine conditions are expected to be very rough and hazardous with sea-swells exceeding
4.0m (13ft) and possibly higher ~8.0m (26ft), near the center of ‘Beryl’ during Monday. Large
and destructive waves/swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip currents. These will
create unsafe conditions for small-craft operators and fishermen.

advised to remain in port. Sea-bathers and other users of the sea are advised to stay out of the
