Beryl looms offshore, only a few hundred miles south of Connecticut.
The National Hurricane Center classified Beryl as a post-tropical storm earlier today. This means that although Beryl is still an intensifying storm, it no longer has tropical characteristics.
The center of the storm is displaced south of all of the convection, which is flowing up towards the southern New England coastline.
With that said, the outflow from Beryl has made it to the Connecticut coast. The storm is racing off towards the northeast and does not pose much of a threat to our area. The only concern is some increased wave action along the coast, but even that will subside as we head into the day on Thursday.
Nonetheless, it's pretty neat to see an impressive satellite image like this, of a storm that is oh, so close.
