The Met Of­fice has main­tained the Hur­ri­cane Warn­ing and Trop­i­cal Storm Warn­ing for To­ba­go and Trinidad re­spec­tive­ly, in its 5 am bul­letin. 

To­ba­go re­mains at a Red Lev­el Hur­ri­cane Warn­ing, while Trinidad is present­ly un­der an Or­ange Lev­el Trop­i­cal Storm Warn­ing. 

Ac­cord­ing to the TTMS, as of 5 am, “Hur­ri­cane Beryl was lo­cat­ed near 11.7°N 59.9°W, ap­prox­i­mate­ly 93km north­east of To­ba­go, mov­ing west near 31 km/h.” 

In the re­lease, they added that pe­ri­ods of show­ers and gusty winds have been ob­served across the is­lands and fur­ther de­te­ri­o­ra­tion is ex­pect­ed with gusts in ex­cess of 70km/h.  

For To­ba­go, the TTMS said, “There is a high chance (90%) of haz­ardous seas with large, bat­ter­ing waves. Mariners should ex­pect wave heights to in­crease sig­nif­i­cant­ly, pos­ing a dan­ger to small craft, coastal and off­shore ac­tiv­i­ties. Strong cur­rents and chop­py seas will make nav­i­ga­tion haz­ardous.” 

Where­as for Trinidad, the TTMS stat­ed, “There is cur­rent­ly a high chance (80%) of haz­ardous seas with large, bat­ter­ing waves. Mariners should ex­pect wave heights to in­crease sig­nif­i­cant­ly, pos­ing a dan­ger to small craft, coastal and off­shore ac­tiv­i­ties. Strong cur­rents and chop­py seas will make nav­i­ga­tion haz­ardous. Show­ers and/or thun­der­storms can be ac­com­pa­nied by wind gusts ex­ceed­ing 55 km/h as­so­ci­at­ed with Beryl’s out­er bands.”
