Ua pae ka Hurricane Beryl ma ka mokupuni ʻo Carriacou ma Grenada, e like me ka US National Hurricane Center (NHC).
ʻO ka makaniʻino, i loaʻa hou ka ikaika i nā hola i hala aku nei, ua hoʻāla i nā ʻōlelo aʻo e pili ana i nā makani weliweli a me nā ʻino weliweli.
“I ka hapalua hola, ua pālahalaha ʻia ʻo Carriacou,” e like me ke Kuhina Nui ʻo Grenada Dickon Mitchell.
Aia pū kekahi ʻōlelo aʻo ʻino ma Barbados, St Vincent a me nā Grenadines, a me Tobago.
Ma mua, ua pani ʻia nā mokulele a me nā ʻoihana a ua koi ʻia nā poʻe noho ma ka Caribbean e ʻimi i kahi malu no ka mea e hiki mai ana ka ʻino i ka ʻāina.
Ua hoʻopau ʻia ka nui o nā mokulele a puni ka ʻāina i ka hoʻokokoke ʻana o Beryl i ka pō Lāpule, ʻoiai ua koi nā alakaʻi i ka lehulehu e hoʻolohe i nā ʻōlelo luhi.
I loko o kahi nūhou i ka Pōʻakahi, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mr Mitchell: “ʻAʻole mākou i waho o ka ululāʻau.” Ua ʻike pū ʻia ʻo Grenada i nā pau ʻana o ka mana, e pili ana i nā kamaʻilio a me ke komo ʻana i nā mea hou o ke aupuni.
Ma kahi o 150mph (241 km/h) ka makani ikaika loa no ka makani ino, e like me ka hōʻike hou a ka NHC, ke neʻe nei ka ʻino i ke komohana.
Aia ka wati hurricane no Jamaica, ʻo ia hoʻi e ʻike paha ka ʻāina i nā kūlana ʻino ma ka Pōʻakolu.
“ʻAʻole ia he ʻakaʻaka,” wahi a ke kuhina nui o St Vincent a me nā Grenadines, ʻo Ralph Gonsalves, e hoʻomanaʻo ana i ka poʻe i ka pōʻino i hana ʻia e nā ʻino i hala ma ka Caribbean.
Ma kahi kamaʻilio aupuni mai kona hale noho aliʻi, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mr Gonsalves e ʻimi ana ʻo ia i kahi e noho ai ma lalo o kona hale.
“ʻO ka hale, ʻoiaʻiʻo ka ʻaoʻao kahiko o ka hale, ʻaʻole hiki ke ola i ka makani ma 150mph. Ke hoʻomākaukau nei au e iho i lalo,” wahi āna.
Ua loli ka ikaika o Beryl.
Ua hoʻonui ʻia ka ʻino i ka ʻāpana ʻehā ma ka Pōʻakahi ma hope o ka nāwaliwali iki ʻana ma mua.
Ua ʻōlelo ka NHC e hoʻomau ʻia ka loli ʻana o ka ikaika akā ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia e hoʻomākaukau nā ʻāpana o nā mokupuni Windward no ka “pōʻino makani weliweli”.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻia ʻo St Vincent a me nā Grenadines a me Grenada i ka pōʻino kiʻekiʻe loa.
Ua wehe ʻia nā hale kiaʻi ʻino ma 18:00 manawa kūloko (22:00 GMT) ma ka Lāpule.
Ua koi aku ke kuhina nui o Barbados, ʻo Mia Mottley, i nā kamaʻāina e makaʻala.
“Pono mākou e mākaukau. ʻIke ʻoe a me aʻu i ka wā e hiki mai ai kēia mau mea, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻolālā ʻana no ka maikaʻi loa a pule no ka maikaʻi,” wahi āna.
“Mai hoʻokuʻu i kou kiaʻi,” wahi āna.
Ua ʻōlelo ka poʻe Meteorologists he mea maʻamau ka hoʻokumu ʻana o kahi ʻino o kēia ikaika i kēia hoʻomaka o ka makahiki.
“ʻElima wale nō mau makaniʻino nui (Category 3+) i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma ka ʻAkelanika ma mua o ka pule mua o Iulai,” i hoʻopuka ai ka loea ʻo Michael Lowry ma X, i kapa ʻia ʻo twitter.
“ʻO Beryl ke ono a me ka mua loa i kēia hikina loa i ka ʻAkelanika tropical,” i kākau ai ʻo Mr Lowry.
Ua hōʻike aku ka US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) e hiki i ka ʻĀkelanika ʻĀkau ke loaʻa i ʻehiku mau ʻino nui i kēia makahiki – mai ka awelika ʻekolu i ka manawa.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻia ʻo ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka wela o ke kai kiʻekiʻe ke kumu o ka hewa.
Ua ʻōlelo pū nā Meteorologists i ka wikiwiki o ka ulu ʻana o Beryl.
Ua hoʻoikaika ʻia ka ʻino mai kahi pōʻino ʻino i loko o kahi ʻino nui – ʻekolu a ʻoi aku paha – i nā hola 42 wale nō, haʻi aku ka loea ʻo Sam Lillo i ka hui nūhou Associated Press.
Ua hoʻolohe ka hapa nui o ka ʻāina i nā ʻōlelo aʻo.
Ua pani nā hale kūʻai a ua hoʻopaʻa nā kānaka i ka wahie a me nā mea kūʻai.
Ua hoʻopuka ʻo Grenada i kahi kūlana ulia pōpilikia a ua kau ʻo St Lucia i kahi “pani ʻāina”, kauoha i nā kula a me nā ʻoihana e pani ʻia.
