Beryl hit Texas as a Category 1 hurricane and was still lashing Texas with torrential rains, tornadoes and life-threatening storm surge as high as five feet in some areas after weakening back to a tropical storm Monday. Nearly 3 million homes and businesses have lost power as downed trees and flooded roadways left stranded drivers in need of rescue. Janet Shamlian has more.

This is the scariest category 1 hurricane I’ve ever been in. We were not expecting it to be this bad. I was unable to sleep because I thought my windows would explode from the wind. The wind was so strong that you could hear it beating against the walls.

Not a surprise for the power outages Texas area had power grid issues before the storm, because of the governor Not wanting to upgrade the system, now inorder to fix it it's going to cost even more than it would have before. Hopefully the people of Texas will receive the help they need to recover.

Texas opted out of the national power grid over twenty years ago. Texas now must replace or repair its own power grid. It can not accept electricity from neighboring states.

@@robinhollenbeck367 A relative of mine works for a power company in New England and the government of Texas has made contact with them regarding helping out and they had to refuse because they have a union and Texas is not part of their mutual aid agreement, Texas wanted to go it alone and now they are stuck because the union electric workers are not allowed to go there to assist them. If they were part of the union mutual aid agreement they would have already been there preposition to help the people of Texas. My relative said he has already gone to most of the other New England states and Ohio, North and South Carolina ,Georgia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, when they have a natural disaster, but they are not allowed to go to Texas because there power grid is considered to be belonging to like another country. Texas opted out of the power grid so they are now on their own.

I hope Houston stays safe. Unfortunately, the Governor of Texas is mad stupid. Obviously the Gulf Coast is out of the state's control, and there is a solution to improve the power grid. However, it's a band aide over another band aide. Texas knows how hurricanes just keep on coming, and the state is still building crappy power lines only to get damaged again by mother nature. The cycle will never end until the power grid improves in Texas. When? LOL

Those saying “not much happened.” Are the lucky ones. Many hard workers are having to clean up the mess in their yard of large trees. Someone in my neighborhood lost their life from a tree falling on their home. We are still without power. All day my family were in the heat cleaning up. If you stood outside all the neighbors were also trying to clean up their yard. Many gas stations were out of gas and many house holds only had electric stoves. Which was hard for many families to get food when restaurants and fast food chains were closed.
