TULUM , Mexico — Hurricane Beryl strengthened back into a Category 3 storm and headed for what could be a direct hit on Mexico 's Caribbean coast resort of Tulum early Friday, where authorities urged tourists to leave white sand beaches .before weakening to a Category 2 storm. But it regained strength late Thursday with windspeeds of 115 mph as it neared landfall on Mexico 's Yucatan Peninsula , according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center.
On Friday, Beryl was expected to weaken as it crossed over the Yucatan peninsula and re-emerge in the Gulf of Mexico, where the surprisingly resilient storm could once again become a hurricane and make a second landfall around Mexico's border with Texas next week. “I hope we have the least impact possible on the hotel, that the hurricane moves quickly through Tulum, and that it’s nothing serious,” he said.
Earlier, Beryl wreaked havoc in the Caribbean. The hurricane damaged or destroyed 95% of homes on a pair of islands in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, jumbled fishing boats in Barbados and ripped off roofs and knocked out electricity in Jamaica.
