Another Day, Another Storm: "Beryl" Takes Aim at Texas, Showing No Mercy After Devastating Mexico
UPDATE:
Beryl, a once ferocious Category 5 hurricane, has weakened to a tropical storm as it wreaked havoc on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. But make no mistake, this storm is far from over, and it's about to give Texas a run for its money.
A Wake-Up Call for the Lone Star State
Northeastern Mexico is still reeling from Beryl's wrath, and now it's Texas' turn to brace for impact. The National Hurricane Center and National Weather Service are not mincing words—this storm is a serious threat.
"Today and Saturday will be our calm before the storm."

A State of Emergency
The state's largest cities are squarely in Beryl's crosshairs, with Houston, Austin, and San Antonio at risk of facing the storm's full fury. The National Weather Service warns of "locally heavy rainfall" as the primary threat, but make no mistake, this storm is a wild card.
The Calm Before
As Beryl moves into the Gulf of Mexico, it could regain strength, which is not good news for anyone. AccuWeather experts predict it may strengthen into a hurricane again, with potential landfall near the Texas-Mexico border. This storm system is a ticking time bomb.

With Beryl's path projected to cut through the heart of Texas, the state is on high alert. Webcams along the coast will capture the raw impact of this storm, providing a front-row seat to Mother Nature's fury. Texans, and indeed the world, are watching and waiting with bated breath.
