(Houston, TX) -- Forecasters are keeping an eye on Hurricane Beryl in the Caribbean. The second named storm of the season poses no threat to Florida.
The historic storm became the earliest Category 4 hurricane on record and formed farther east than any other Atlantic hurricane in June. Beryl built to Category 4 on Sunday morning but was downgraded to Category 3 early today with maximum sustained winds of 120 miles per hour.
