YABUCOA, Puerto Rico — Almost 10 months after Hurricane Maria ravaged
this island, residents were preparing Sunday for the remnants of Beryl —
a tiny system that could still drench Puerto Rico and its fragile
infrastructure.
Forecasters said that Beryl would slog south — a
huge relief to an island still recovering from Maria, the Category 4
hurricane that hit the U.S. territory in September and caused an
estimated $100 billion in damage.
Tropical
Storm Beryl was downgraded on Sunday, and the National Hurricane Center
indicated reconnaissance aircraft couldn’t find a central circulation,
meaning the storm is a remnant system.
