Hurricane Beryl slammed into the Texas coastline early Monday morning as a Category One storm. It had wind gusts around 80 miles per hour and is expected to dump 5-10 inches of rain.
It has since been downgraded to a Tropical Storm as it moved over Houston. By Wednesday, the storm remnants will move north into the Midwest states, like Indiana and Ohio.
In Texas, millions are without power, and news reports say several structures have been damaged. According to CNN, Surfside Beach, Texas, is one of the hardest-hit communities.
Our disaster response team is closely monitoring the situation and will be available to assist anyone dealing with property damage due to the storm.
