Hurricane Beryl has weakened back into a Category 2 storm and is headed for what could be a direct hit on Mexico’s Caribbean coast resort of Tulum, where authorities are urging tourists to leave white sand beaches. Beryl was the earliest Category 5 hurricane in the Atlantic before weakening into a Category 2 storm with windspeeds of 110 mph (175 kph) as it neared landfall on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula. President Andrés Manuel López Obrador issued a statement late Thursday saying Beryl may make a direct hit on Tulum, which, while smaller than Cancun, still has thousands of tourists and residents.
