East coast braces for Tropical Storm Beryl

SAVANNAH, Ga. - Tropical Storm Beryl already was wrecking some Memorial Day weekend plans Sunday, sending shoreline campers inland and canceling some events in the southeastern United States.

Beryl was still well offshore, but officials in Georgia and Florida were already bracing for drenching rains and driving winds. Campers at Cumberland Island, reachable only by boat, were told to leave by 4:45 p.m. It has a number of undeveloped beaches and forests popular with campers.
