Expected Winds from Beryl

Regardless of the landfall location, we expect a large swath of 40-70 mph winds for cities like Freeport, Bay City, Wharton, Rosenberg and possibly Sugar Land, Katy and, by midday, the Great Houston area.

Beryl's Storm Surge Impact

Galveston Island and bay communities will be threatened by a storm surge of 3-6' which will cover low-lying roads (some impassible) and may be higher near landfall in Matagorda and Coastal Brazoria Counties.

Beryl's Rainfall and Flooding

Rainfall could range from 5-10", so flooding is also a concern on Monday, but fortunately, Beryl will be a fast-mover which will limit the duration of heavy rain.
