The record-setting early season hurricane which has already claimed six lives in the Caribbean could hit the U.S. by Saturday, forecasters warned Wednesday.
Hurricane Beryl is currently a Category 4 storm about to hit Jamaica, after causing extensive damage in the southeast Caribbean.
Devastating winds, life-threatening storm surge, and damaging waves were expected to pummel Jamaica and spread into the Cayman Islands late Wednesday, according to the National Hurricane Center. Life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides from heavy rainfall are expected over much of the area and southern Haiti through today.
