Tropical Storm Beryl formed Friday evening in the Atlantic east of the Windward Islands and could become Hurricane Beryl by Sunday as it moves westward, the National Hurricane Center said.
It becomes the second named storm of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, formally turning into a tropical storm about 1,100 miles southeast of the Windward Islands at the eastern end of the Caribbean.
If it becomes a hurricane by Sunday afternoon, it would be the farthest east on record a hurricane has formed in the tropical Atlantic, breaking a record set in 1933, said Phil Klotzbach, a senior research scientist at Colorado State University, and lead author of its seasonal hurricane outlook.

Tropical Storm Beryl will continue moving WNW and strengthen. It will likely be a hurricane BEFORE reaching the islands of the E. Caribbean. High pressure to its north and over the SE US, should keep Beryl south of the United states by next weekend. @Jlinkerwx pic.twitter.com/SdXYLIFraV
