Tropical Storm Beryl formed in the central mid Atlantic from a tropical low pressure area. This storm is located approximately 1200 miles east southeast of the Lesser Antilles and is moving generally west at 15 to 18 MPH. This storm may make Hurricane Category 1 status by late Friday, July 6, or early Saturday, July 7. However, the storm will be encountering upper level shear which will keep it from further development through early next week.
If this storm survives the upper level shear and re-develops in the Caribbean, we will post any updates as needed.
