Record sea temperatures threaten catastrophic destruction across Caribbean
Hurricane Beryl became the earliest hurricane on record to develop into a category five storm, meaning its winds and sea surges could prove catastrophic, as warming oceans fuelled destruction across the south-eastern Caribbean. Forecasters said it was expected to bring “life-threatening” winds and storm surges to Jamaica on Wednesday before hitting the Cayman Islands.
The Alliance of Small Island States, a group of about 40 low-lying countries threatened by rising seas across the Caribbean, Pacific, Africa, Indian Ocean and South China Sea, said the hurricane highlighted the urgent need for finance to help them deal with the effects of climate change.
