San Pedro Takes Early Precaution; Braces for Beryl
Residents and the business community of San Pedro have had numerous experiences with hurricanes threatening Belize over the past two decades. So, when the news emerged that Hurricane Beryl was heading in this general direction, the San Pedro Town Council wasted no time to mobilize and convene emergency management meetings. Even though Beryl has shifted course a bit and is now heading north of Belize, today, the town council met with the NEMO coordinator and the various departments. That meeting included the Coast Guard and even neighborhood watch groups to prepare themselves in the event Beryl changes course and jogs due west. News Five’s Marion Ali files a report on that meeting.
