DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 200 PM AST (1800 UTC), the poorly defined center of Tropical Storm Beryl was located near latitude 14.8 North, longitude 59.2 West. Beryl is moving toward the west-northwest near 26 mph (42 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue during the next couple of days. On the forecast track, the center of Beryl or its remnants will approach the Lesser Antilles this evening, cross the island chain overnight, and move near or south of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico on Monday. Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Weakening is anticipated during the next 24 hours, and Beryl is forecast to degenerate into a trough of low pressure by this evening as it moves across the Lesser Antilles and into the eastern Caribbean Sea. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km), mainly to the north and northeast of the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1007 mb (29.74 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected in Dominica and Guadeloupe tonight. Tropical storm conditions are possible in the watch areas of the Lesser Antilles by later today or Monday. Strong gusty winds are also possible in the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico on Monday. RAINFALL: Beryl is expected to produce storm total rain accumulations of 2 to 3 inches through Tuesday across the Leeward and the Virgin Islands, as well as Puerto Rico. Local amounts up to 5 inches are possible. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 500 PM AST. $$ Forecaster Stewart
