Hurricane Beryl should remain south of the Dominican Republic and Haiti today. The past few Advisories from the National Hurricane Center have the forecast track moving slightly to the right each time. This movement is bringing Hurricane Beryl extremely close to making landfall in Jamaica.
As of Advisory 16 timestamped 11:00 AM EDT (1500 UTC), the forecast track brings Beryl onshore Jamaica around midday Wednesday.
The Hurricane Watch Net will activate Wednesday, July 3rd, at 7:00 AM EDT (1100 UTC) on 14.325.00 MHz, and at 8:30 AM EDT (1230 UTC), or just as soon as the Waterway Net has completed, on 7.268.00 MHz.
Any additional change to the forecast track could bring Hurricane conditions, perhaps, even landfall, on Thursday across the Cayman Islands. We will watch the track closely!
The Hurricane Watch Net is also preparing for a Friday activation for when Hurricane Beryl is expected to make landfall in the Yucatan of Mexico.
As always, we greatly appreciate the daily users and various nets who use 14.325.00 MHz and 7.268.00 MHz for allowing us a clear frequency. It certainly makes our job easier and I know those in the affected area appreciate it as well.
Our prayers go out to those who could be affected by Hurricane Beryl. HWN is prepared, ready to serve, and do what we can to help save lives.
Kind Regards and God Bless,
