Are there updates on the damage toll?

I've heard estimates as high as 32$ billion in the U.S., but I haven't found any sources other than AccuWeather to back this up. NesserWiki (talk) 10:07, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just wondering if there's any estimate that is accurate, because 6$ billion seems awfully low. NesserWiki (talk) 10:07, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I made an error by putting the dollar sign after the number, instead of before, sorry. NesserWiki (talk) 10:08, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In my defence, I'm quite tired. NesserWiki (talk) 10:08, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The NOAA lists Beryl's cost at $6 billion currently so I would not update it now. Also, if you notice a minor error within one or two minutes after posting a reply, I would just edit your comment. ✶Qux yz ✶ 13:02, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The damage toll needs to be updated

6 billon is too low of an estimate, the AccuWeather estimate of 28-32 billon is much more accurate, all things considered. NesserWiki (talk) 21:38, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We're discussing this at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard#AccuWeather for damage estimates. GeorgeMemulous (talk) 21:40, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, okay. Good. NesserWiki (talk) 21:50, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, Debby said $28 billion on AccuWeather. Joseph Ca98 (talk) 11:37, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

https://nationnews.com/2024/12/29/near-term-outlook-remains-positive/ Barbados damage toll 193 million BDS or 1.4% of GDP. Not sure how to update this myself but I'm sure you guys will be able to. Mickyals (talk) 15:58, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The death toll of Beryl needs to be updated everywhere on Wikipedia.

Another death is all. Direct. I am currently fixing this. There actually were not 70. It was 71. Just saying. Joseph Ca98 (talk) 19:39, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reliable source for that? _ZZ^Z 'S 19:47, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Storm Names Pronunciation Doesn't List Beryl Anymore As It Retired

We're going to need an archived .PDF file link. YoyoIveGotXP (talk) 18:20, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
