Tropical Storm Beryl Update: Latest track, impact on Dallas-Fort Worth
SUMMARY: Tropical storm Barrel is expected to make landfall earlier than anticipated, with strong organization signs suggesting potential intensification before it hits near Matagorda after 1:00 a.m. tonight. Southeastern counties are under a flood watch from tomorrow morning through Tuesday due to expected heavy rain. Though Barrel will weaken quickly post-landfall, East Texas may experience prolonged rain, while western areas may see little to no precipitation. The storm’s fast movement will result in lower rainfall totals overall, with widespread 5 to 10 inches expected around Houston. Areas near Dallas and Fort Worth will likely see significantly less rainfall, around 1 to 2 inches and less than an inch, respectively.
Tropical Storm Beryl is expected to make landfall on Monday morning in Texas. The impacts will be felt in parts of North Texas. FOX 4’s Ali Turiano takes a look at the updated track and more.

SUMMARY: At the only open hardware store in Port Lavaca, remaining plywood has already been bought, and people are returning with trailers for the last-minute preparations. The store manager, Tony, notes that despite the rush, essential items like generators and power cords are almost depleted. Customers are resorting to alternative materials like fence pickets to protect their properties. Supplies are dwindling, making it challenging for those unprepared.
