Original Update
Above: Tropical Storm Beryl at Sunset on approach to Texas July 6, 2024
Beryl is still in its reconstruction phase tonight, having had a serious interruption of its core during passage across the Yucatan, and its convection during exit over the cooler shelf waters while being blasted with some dry air.
Little by little, now Tropical Storm Beryl is clearing out the dry air and rebuilding the inner core, and is still expected to become a hurricane once again and make landfall on the central Texas coast as a Cat 1. Impacts should be felt far and wide along Beryl's track, with some locations getting the worst of the wind and/or rain/flooding. The exact location of landfall and worst weather will become more certain as the storm draws closer, but mandatory evacuations in some of of the more sensitive and vulnerable places have already begun.
