Thursday video discussion on Invest #94L in the western Caribbean and Invest #95L in the central Atlantic. 95L could beocme a tropical storm and approach the Lesser Antilles early next week.
 
Tropical Storm Beryl has formed and interests in the Caribbean should monitor it. There's another wave behind it too.

My youngest is headed to vet school in August, in West Indies Grenada where, according to their website,

St. George’s University is located in Grenada, just north of South America and below the path most hurricanes follow through the Caribbean.

Well, I guess Hurricane Beryl is blowing that concept right outta the water. So much for reassurances!!! I was thinking I wouldn't have to worry about storms much. Kiddo said today that they have everyone sheltering at the school.

From St George's University website:

Hurricanes: Grenada lies south of the typical path of Atlantic hurricanes, but hurricane conditions can occur. In the past 60 years, Grenada has only experienced one major hurricane. In 2004, a severe storm hit Grenada. However, the True Blue campus, built to withstand a Category 5 hurricane, was a safe haven for our students, staff, and faculty.
 
This looks like a rain event for Mexico. I hope there isn't any landslides and the electric stays on.

Good Monday morning July 1 2024

Hurricane Beryl is still well to our south, headed for the Windward Islands - Grenada looks to be the main island along with SVG, St Lucia and Tobago. It’s compact and storm force winds extend only 35 miles from the center, and TS force winds to 125 miles. The “closest approach” tool from Storm Carib shows 275 miles from St Croix, and our weather should start to change late afternoon through tomorrow. Wind forecast for our area will be 30-35kts.

Invest 96L may or may not develop, the computer models cannot seem to agree if this system will close and start to spin and become TD4 but the spaghetti model is posted for reference.
