 Only two other hurricanes have made landfall in Jamaica in the last 40 years. Beryl is expected to bring several inches of rainfall that could flood Jamaica's coast. Beryl had strength into a Category 5 Tuesday after devastating the Windward Islands. The storm is expected to head into Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula by Friday. Beryl is by far the earliest Category 5 storm ever observed in the Atlantic and comes as climate scientists predict an extremely active 2024 hurricane season.
