Hurricane Beryl: Jamaica PM urges people to prepare for deadly storm | BBC News
Jamaicans are bracing for a deadly hurricane as it heads towards the island on Wednesday.
Hurricane Beryl is expected to bring "life-threatening winds and storm surge" to Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, the US National Hurricane Center (NHC) warns.
Prime Minister Andrew Holness urged people to "take this hurricane seriously".
Jamaican authorities have imposed a curfew from 06:00 to 18:00 local time (12:00-00:00 BST).
At least seven people were killed as the storm swept through the Caribbean.

Simply because the system is approaching from the South East!......so the places in the East will feel the effects first.
Sucks to be Jamaican right about now. Stay as safe as possible 🙏

That weather lady needs to go back and read about El Niño, Enhances Hurricane Season period, La Niña inhibits and cools the water and is forecast to develop this summer and persist throughout winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
How is it potentially catastrophic? when Hurricane Beryl 🌀 already took lives on the grenada islands.🏝
What's going on with world's weather?

Climate change isn’t speeding up, it’s been changing gradually since the Industrial Revolution. These weather systems are driven by the CO2 released from burning a tremendous amount of coal for over two hundred years. The frightening thing is that even if we stop using any energy with emissions now, it will take about two hundred years to peak and then settle down. Strap in 😮😱😱😱🇬🇧🙏🌈♥️

Yea . Not looking good. Sad.
We should send our Jamaicans to help them rebuild.
If we can build wind proof jackets why can't we build like inflatable storm sheets to move the wind upwards and redirect the force upwards and disperse it as well as build windfarms in Jamaica? The problem I have is now everyone is going to reply to this comment on why western engineering will be needed...I am not disputing that but there is a general mistrust now and as with everything you will need to earn the trust back.

Signed off at "climate change"
looks like its already hit
Don't know what all the fuss is about, it's hurricane season them lot are used to it , they're getting ready to face whatever comes there way, hurricanes , floods , wild fires , earthquakes , volcanoes etc, always cause death. You can never win against Mother Nature she's a single woman, and without her we wouldn't be here today , God bless her.. 👍💯

They don't usually see strong hurricanes. The most recent direct hit and most damaging was Gilbert in 1988 .
Don’t worry about a thing……

@@simulationkoyo The answer is AOC and Sniffy the clown are planning to go at night to nuke the Sun which is more dangerous than a nuclear war. According to CNN and CBS news.
Our powerful creator who created all of the things in earth and universe. He is the only one can also destroy all of them and not humans, not powerful country they said, not missiles or nuclear etc. Our God in the bible created hurricane, tornado, great earthquake, volcanic erruptions.

Does anyone know that if you report an untaxed car then does anyone find out if it was you who reported it? And do they have info about you or your phone number if you report the car in gov.uk website?
What are these women smiling about... People are potentially about to lose their lives. I get crazy weather excites y'all but damn show some empathy.
