On Monday, Hurricane Beryl will plow through the Windward Islands, bringing life-threatening impacts as it continues its historic journey across the Atlantic Basin. Hurricane and Tropical Storm Warnings are in place for several of the southeastern Caribbean islands.

Farther west, Tropical Storm Chris formed late Sunday night in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico and made landfall less than two hours later in eastern Mexico. Chris could drop up to a foot of rain in parts of the region, threatening the mountainous terrain with mudslides and flash flooding.

And behind Beryl in the central tropical Atlantic, Invest 96L has a high chance of tropical development in the next week. The National Hurricane Center said a tropical depression is likely to form by the middle part of this week. Should the system strengthen into a tropical storm, it will get the fourth name on the list for the 2024 hurricane season – Debby.
