Tropical Storm Beryl: Updated timing, track, North Texas impact
SUMMARY: The latest advisory from the National Hurricane Center states that Tropical Storm Beryl is getting better organized and is expected to strengthen before making landfall between 1-2 AM near Bayou. The pressure has dropped by 3 mbars since the 4 AM advisory, indicating intensification, likely reaching a strong Category 1 hurricane status at landfall. Post-landfall, Beryl will move north and northeast. The storm is expected to bring a significant storm surge of 3-6 feet along the coast, with hurricane warnings now in place. North Texas might see heavy rainfall, especially east and southeast of the Metroplex, with up to 7 inches, leading to flooding concerns. Conversely, areas west of Fort Worth may see little to no rain.
Tropical Storm Beryl is strengthening in the Gulf of Mexico and is expected to reach Category 1 status before making landfall Sunday night to Monday morning. FOX 4 meteorologist Kylie Capps takes a look at the latest track.
