Previous: Beryl downgraded to tropical storm after Texas landfall
Beryl made landfall along the coast of Texas Monday morning as a Category 1 hurricane but has since been downgraded to a tropical storm. FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber said the storm should fizzle out as it makes its way north through the U.S., even approaching Canada. After Beryl, there aren't any other tropical disturbances as of now thanks to some Saharan dust over the Atlantic.
TAMPA, Fla. - Beryl has weakened into a tropical depression after making landfall along the Texas coast Monday morning as a Category 1 hurricane.

The storm was previously downgraded to a tropical storm with maximum sustained winds of 45 miles per hour. Now as a tropical depression, Beryl reached maximum sustained winds of 35 miles per hour.
The NHC warned that life-threatening storm surge inundation were specifically possible along the coast of Texas from Mesquite Bay to Sabine Pass, including Matagorda Bay and Galveston Bay.
Texas' Gulf Coast has seen heavy rainfall from the storm.
Beryl formed in the Atlantic before rapidly intensifying over warm waters and churning through the Caribbean and then Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, sometimes as strong as a Category 5 hurricane.
FOX 13 Meteorologist Dave Osterberg said once Beryl dissipates in the United States, there shouldn't be any other tropical activity for the time being - just Saharan dust in the Atlantic.
