HOUSTON — As Tropical Storm Beryl continues to weaken on shore, preliminary rainfall totals and official wind gust speeds are starting to come in across the Houston metro area.
While most of the region saw between 6 and 10 inches of rain the last 24 hours, some communities saw over a foot since Beryl first made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane early Monday morning. It later was downgraded to a tropical storm after several hours over land.
The storm has brought high winds, heavy rainfall and flooding to many areas around the city and has left over 2.5 million customers without power.
Now that Beryl is moving to the north, preliminary rainfall totals over the last 24 hours have began to come in.
