A very powerful Category 5 storm called storm Beryl was roaring in the eastern Caribbean. The International Space Station (ISS) caught this amazing video of it. The video, which was taken from about 400 kilometers above Earth, shows how big and strong this possibly dangerous weather system is. Hurricane Beryl is now a Category 5 storm, having quickly grown stronger to become the fastest Category 4 storm ever recorded. It has winds of up to 257 kmph.
On Friday, a new tropical depression formed in the Atlantic Ocean. In just two days, it grew stronger and stronger until it hit land on the Windward Islands as a Category 4 storm. It got to Grenada’s coast on Monday night. Meteorologists are amazed that hurricanes can get stronger so quickly in that area and so early in the Atlantic hurricane season.
Seen from Space before Landfall, Hurricane Beryl is Called ‘Unprecedented’
In the eastern Caribbean, the storm has already done a lot of damage by flooding streets and downing power lines. It could rain up to 10 inches (25 cm) in some places, and there are still hurricane warnings in effect for a number of islands, such as St. Vincent and the Grenadines. As Beryl continues to move westward this week, dangerous winds and storm surges are expected to hit Jamaica. Researchers believe that climate change is linked to Beryl’s incredibly early and powerful formation. They say that higher temperatures in the North Atlantic are likely one reason for the rock’s fast growth. This shows how global warming is having a bigger effect on bad weather.
Tuesday, Hurricane Beryl hit land on Carriacou Island in the north Atlantic Ocean. Astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) had a great view of the storm. NASA shared a video of the hurricane using X. The hurricane has grown into a Category 4 storm, bringing strong winds and rain to the Caribbean. NASA shared a video of the hurricane using X.

Hurricane Beryl is seen from Space
Hurricane Beryl hit land on July 1 as a Category 4 storm that was described as “extremely dangerous.” Satellites are tracking it as it dumps heavy rain and wind on the Caribbean island of Carriacou in Grenada. There was a big storm called Beryl in the Atlantic over the weekend. NOAA’s GOES-East satellite tracked it and took several pictures of it almost in real time.
NOAA shared stunning satellite imagery of the storm
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has shared pictures of Hurricane Beryl taken by satellite. A picture of the “mesovortices” in Beryl’s eye was taken by NOAA satellites that have been tracking the storm almost real time. The National Hurricane Center says the hurricane is “extremely dangerous” because it is causing dangerous winds and a storm surge in the Windwar Islands, a group of islands in the Caribbean Sea.
Meteorologists say that storm Beryl could bring up to three meters of heavy rain and wind gusts of up to 240 kilometers per hour. People have shared pictures on X that show how the winds in the Caribbean islands are blowing away houses and trees.

Dickon Mitchell, who is the prime minister of Grenada, told people to stay inside and use the bathrooms if they had to. All over the island, emergency centers were set up where thousands of people could stay. People in the area have been told to pay attention to emergency messages and stay inside during this time. Along with Grenada, Barbados and Jamaica have been hit hard by the storm.
Hurricane Beryl Hits the Caribbean, Strengthens to Category 5 Storm
The US weather service has upgraded storm Beryl to a “potentially catastrophic Category 5 hurricane” as it moves over the middle of the Caribbean Sea. An alert from the NHC late Monday night said that Beryl was at the top of the five-level scale that shows a storm’s strongest sustained wind speed and wind speed and destructive ability.
Hurricane Beryl hit many islands in the southeast Caribbean and brought heavy rain and strong winds. Late Monday night, it got stronger and became a category 5 storm. Barbados was hit by heavy rain and strong winds, but luckily it did not get hit by the worst of the storm. As of now, officials have not said that anyone has been hurt.
In some places, homes and businesses were flooded, and in Bridgetown, damage was done to fishing boats. Jamaica has sent out a hurricane warning before the storm is expected to hit on Wednesday. The NHC also told people in the Cayman Islands and some parts of the Yucatan Peninsula to keep an eye on how the storm was moving.
