It was the earliest-forming Category&nbsp;5 hurricane on record during any season in the Atlantic and just the second in the month of July, the other being [[2005 Atlantic hurricane season|2005]]'s mid-July [[Hurricane Emily (2005)|Hurricane Emily]]. Beryl was also the strongest hurricane to develop within the [[Main Development Region]] (MDR) of the Atlantic before the month of July.

Beryl developed from a [[tropical wave]] that left the coast of Africa on June&nbsp;25. After forming on June&nbsp;28 in the [[Main Development Region]], it began [[rapid intensification|rapidly intensifying]] as it moved west through the central [[tropical Atlantic]]. On July&nbsp;1, Beryl made landfall on the island of [[Carriacou]] in Grenada as a high-end Category&nbsp;4 hurricane, causing total devastation. The hurricane intensified further as it entered the [[Caribbean Sea]], peaking as a Category&nbsp;5 hurricane early the next morning with maximum sustained winds of 165&nbsp;mph (270&nbsp;km/h) and a minimum [[atmospheric pressure|pressure]] of {{convert|934|mb|inHg}}, before slowly weakening over the next few days due to wind shear as it passed south of Jamaica and then the [[Cayman Islands]]. It briefly re-intensified to a Category&nbsp;3 hurricane before weakening again as it made landfall in [[Tulum, Quintana Roo]], as a high-end Category&nbsp;2 hurricane on July&nbsp;5. Crossing the [[Yucatán Peninsula]], where it quickly weakened to a tropical storm, the system moved into the [[Gulf of Mexico]], where it gradually reorganized into a Category&nbsp;1 hurricane on July&nbsp;8, just before making a final landfall near [[Matagorda, Texas]]. Beryl quickly weakened as it accelerated to the northeast, eventually becoming post-tropical over the state of [[Arkansas]] the following day and impacting the Midwest. Effects and casualties from the hurricane were widespread. Beryl caused catastrophic damage on Grenada's northern islands of Carriacou and [[Petite Martinique]] and on several of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines' southern islands such as [[Union Island]] and [[Canouan]] where many structures were damaged or destroyed. In Venezuela, three people were killed and several were missing. Sustained damage was also recorded in the Yucatán as well, although it was relatively minor. In the [[United States]], the state of [[Texas]] experienced severe flooding and wind damage, with reports of at least seven dead in the Houston region. Additionally, the outer bands of the hurricane produced a [[Hurricane Beryl tornado outbreak|tornado outbreak]], with tornadoes confirmed in Texas, [[Louisiana]], Arkansas, [[Kentucky]], [[Indiana]], and [[New York (state)|New York]]. As of July&nbsp;13, a total of 40 fatalities have been confirmed, and preliminary damage estimates are more than US{{ntsp|6000000000||$}}. ==Meteorological history== {{storm path|Beryl 2024 path.png|colors=new}} The [[National Hurricane Center]] (NHC) began monitoring a [[tropical wave]] that left the coast of [[West Africa]] that day on June&nbsp;25, producing disorganized showers south of [[Cabo Verde]].<ref name=":1">{{cite report|last=Bucci|first=Lisa|date=June 25, 2024|title=Tropical Weather Outlook|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/xgtwo/gtwo_archive.php?current_issuance=202406252345&basin=atl&fdays=7|publisher=National Hurricane Center|location=Miami, Florida|language=en-US|access-date=June 26, 2024|archive-date=June 26, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240626202937/https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/xgtwo/gtwo_archive.php?current_issuance=202406252345&basin=atl&fdays=7|url-status=live}}</ref> By the evening of June&nbsp;27, the satellite presentation of the disturbance, now known as ''Invest 95L'' by the NHC, was beginning to show some organization, with curved bands developing around a broad circulation.
