Hurricane Beryl is now a Category 5 Hurricane , according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC). It is the highest level on the SAFFIR-SIMPON HURRICANE WIND SCALE , indicating that the winds reach 157 miles per hour or more, and catastrophic damage will occur.
"A high percentage of supervised houses will be destroyed, with total roof failure and a collapse of the wall. The fallen trees and the power posts will isolate the residential areas. The power outages will last for weeks." The NHC explains on its website.
Intensifying in a category 5 Monday evening after having failed by Carriacou, the Hurricane Beryl is now the Storm of the strongest Atlantic which was never seen in July, The Washington Post reported. He went from tropical depression to a category 4 hurricane in just 48 hours, which is the fastest that any recorded storm has been strengthened before September.

"This is something that we see characteristic during the training season for advanced hurricanes in August, September or October."

As Brian McNoldy , a main research partner with the Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric and Earth Science at the University of Miami, Beryl was able to strengthen so quickly due to the record temperatures of the sea surface in the game of the Atlantic where hurricanes are formed.
The warmth of the ocean also allowed Beryl to train more in the East in the Atlantic than the typical June storms, beating a record established in 1933, THE New York Times reported.
While the activity of hurricanes at the start of the season does not always say big Philip Klotzbach , an expert in seasonal forecasts of hurricanes in Colorado State University.

Consequently, the forecasters of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) already predict that there will be 8 to 13 hurricanes this season, half of which reaching the status of major hurricane like Beryl, according to the newspaper.
