See Texas power outage map as Hurricane Beryl makes landfall near Matagorda
The impact of Hurricane Beryl started Sunday afternoon along the Texas coast, with heavy rainfall, storm surge and swells with life-threatening riptides.
The National Hurricane Center forecasts that Beryl intensified into a Category 1 hurricane ahead of landfall early Monday morning near Matagorda, Texas.
Acting Governor Dan Patrick issued disaster declarations for 121 counties in Texas on Saturday. “Based on the current forecast, heavy rain and some localized flooding could occur all the way from the coast through areas near College Station, Tyler, and Texarkana as the storm moves through Texas on its current track," Patrick said in a release.
A hurricane warning is in effect from Baffin Bay northward to San Luis Pass, along with several tropical storm and storm surge warnings.
