We spoke to two people, one of which is with their family, and another who is with a group of friends, who state Tuesday afternoon is beautiful.
Tomorrow, the weather will change dramatically as Hurricane Beryl, which was rated as a Category 5, now a Category 4, will make landfall.
Beryl is the first CAT 5 Hurricane this early in the season on record. The Columbus, GA residents, who are living at a resort on the west end of the island, say businesses are closing down and resorts are preparing ahead of the hurricane.
These residents will be sending updates, as weather and technology permits, regarding the hurricane. Please pray for all of these residents, as well as everyone affected by Beryl.
