Hurricane Beryl Makes Landfall in Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico

 

Early Friday morning, Hurricane Beryl struck Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, making landfall near the popular tourist area of Tulum. The storm, which had weakened to a Category 2, carried maximum sustained winds of 110 mph. 

As it barreled toward Tulum, “life-threatening” conditions—including hurricane-force winds, a dangerous storm surge, and heavy rainfall—were expected to impact Mexico’s top tourist destination. Residents in the area were advised to shelter in place, and rip currents were also a concern along the Gulf Coast. The storm is now expected to move over southern Texas this weekend, prompting preparations in the region.
