Tropical Storm Beryl popped up way south. A microwave satellite detected a 5 nm eye.
Quote from the National Hurricane Center.
"Beryl has been a bit of a surprise today, which is not uncommon for
tiny tropical cyclones such as itself."
It should disappear about as fast as it appeared. Upper air winds are unfavorable for much further strengthening.
@capta might get a strong winds in the Lesser Antilles.
"Beryl is still expected to dissipate as a tropical cyclone by Monday before reaching the Lesser Antilles, there will likely be some rain and wind impacts on those islands early next week."

Tracking models have kicked in so I won't report much more.

PS: It was not the Winds but the EYE detection that got it noticed.
