Hurricane Beryl hits Jamaica

Hurricane Beryl has wreaked havoc on Jamaica, with powerful winds and heavy rain causing damage to buildings and trees on the island. The category four storm brought winds of up to 130mph to the southern coast of Jamaica, resulting in severe flooding and destruction. Social media photos depict the aftermath of the storm, with floodwater rushing down streets and roofs torn off by the strong winds.

Tragically, at least seven people have lost their lives as Hurricane Beryl continues to move across the Caribbean. The storm has now been downgraded to a category three, but it is still causing destruction as it heads towards Mexico. The impact of Hurricane Beryl serves as a stark reminder of the ferocity of nature and the importance of being prepared for extreme weather events.
