Have you ever met someone who is wise beyond their age? Such people are often referred to as old souls. They understand life and the world better than many zodiac signs. A soul’s age doesn’t necessarily match a person’s actual age. Instead, it advances based on the life experiences someone has.

Hurricane Beryl leaves damage strewn across southeast Caribbean islands

Hurricane Beryl reached Category 5 strength as it tore into the Caribbean on Monday, with sustained winds reaching 165 miles per hour. This marks the earliest point in the season on record that a tropical storm has reached this intensity. As of Tuesday morning, at least one death has been confirmed in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

Hurricane Beryl is the terrifying storm that scientists have been expecting

Hurricane Warning flags were flying in Jamaica on Tuesday as Category 5 Hurricane Beryl hurtled toward the island. Beryl blasted through the Windward Islands on Monday as a Category 4 storm with 150 mph winds, killing seven and causing severe damage. On Monday night and Tuesday morning, Beryl peaked as a Category 5 storm with 165 mph winds, making it the strongest Atlantic hurricane on record in July (old record: 160 mph on July 17, 2005, Hurricane Emily, the only other July Cat 5 on record). The prior record for earliest Atlantic hurricane with 165 mph winds was August 5, 1980 (Hurricane Allen). Update: At 2 a.m. EDT Wednesday, Beryl remained a resilient, powerful Category 4 hurricane with top winds of 145 mph, located about 250 miles east-southeast of Kingston, Jamaica. Beryl was moving west-northwest at 22 mph, so the hurricane’s full fury is expected to reach Jamaica during the day on Wednesday, including destructive winds and a storm surge of as high as 6 to 9 feet in some areas. Torrential rains with potential landslides and flooding will affect not only Jamaica but Hispaniola, including parts of highly vulnerable Haiti. Beryl is predicted to weaken gradually but to still be at or near Category 3 strength as it passes near or just south of the Cayman Islands on Wednesday night.

Hurricane Beryl has strengthened into a Category 5 Atlantic hurricane — the earliest on record — as it powers across the Caribbean after bringing devastation to the Windward Islands, where at least one person is dead.

With hurricane season just starting, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) is just starting a new product this season, that will help people focus on the watches and warnings for their area, instead of just the “cone of uncertainty”, which was first used in 2002. The “cone of uncertainty” is created by a set of circles, not shown, along the forecast track of a storm every 12 hours for the first three days and then every 24 hours during the fourth and fifth days. The size of each circle is specifically set so that the storm’s center stays within that cone for roughly two-thirds of its travel time.
