Hurricane Beryl made landfall on the Texas coast near Matagorda as a Category 1 hurricane, bringing dangerous storm surges, strong winds, and power outages affecting over 140,000 CenterPoint Energy customers. The storm is expected to weaken to a tropical storm and depression while moving northeast, impacting eastern Texas, the lower Mississippi Valley, and the Ohio Valley. Despite the initial impact in Texas, Beryl's effects, including flooding and tornado threats, will extend through the southern Mississippi Valley, central United States, and potentially the Great Lakes region during the week.
