Tropical Storm Beryl will hit 11 states, including NY, with dangerous weather before it dissipates

HOUSTON — Tropical Storm Beryl will tear through the heart of the Midwest and push as far as western New York, bringing dangerous weather to 11 states before it finally loses steam on Thursday morning.

The storm entered the eastern coast of Texas at Matagorda — about 80 miles south of Houston — early Monday as a Category 1 hurricane, with wind gusts hitting up to 80 mph.

It battered Houston Monday, bringing nearly 12 inches of rainfall to some parts of the city in just a few hours — causing massive flooding on major highways, which left dozens of people trapped in their vehicles and requiring rescue.

But the danger is far from isolated to Texas. Beryl is expected to be downgraded to a tropical depression by Tuesday morning as it moves from the Midwest to New York and New England after leaving Texas.

According to Fox Weather, the storm is expected to travel through Arkansas heading northeast.

It will hit western New York, and its remnants could go as far north as Canada.

On Tuesday, Beryl could bring severe weather to parts of western Kentucky and southern Illinois and Indiana, Fox Weather forecasts said.

While Beryl has lost a majority of its power after making landfall, but the storm will likely bring 1-3 inches of rain as it travels north, with pockets of 3-5 inches as it travels through northeast Texas to the Great Lakes.

Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland could all see rain from Beryl, according to Fox Weather.

It’ll get to New York late Wednesday and into Thursday, but by then it will just bring rain — with no severe weather threat.

More than 2 million CenterPoint Energy customers in Texas had lost power by midday as Beryl crashed through the Houston region.

“I do not have power, we’re all living this together, we’re all in this together,” Houston Mayor John Whitmire said during a press conference Monday while urging Houstonians to stay home to avoid the flood waters, downed power lines and dangerous debris.

Bridget Robinson, a resident of the Texas coast near Galveston, told The Post, the situation “isn’t great” for the surrounding areas but that she’s lucky to have a generator to sustain power.

Houston firefighters rescued a man whose pickup truck was almost fully under water near Houston’s Astrodome by tossing him a life jacket and life ring, as they pulled him to dry land.

However, Houston Fire Department Chief Samuel Peña said his crews “cannot continue to service every call type that same way.”

Eight people total had been rescued from high floodwaters as of noon on Monday, Houston assistant police chief Thomas Hardin said.

Two deaths had also been recorded during the storm, including a man from the Houston suburb of Humble who had been trapped under rubble after a tree fell on his house, city officials said.

The rain and wind in Houston is expected to subside by the end of the day Monday, but officials continue to warn residents to stay home to avoid floodwaters and debris.

Houston floodwaters have also overwhelmed the city’s bayou system, which usually helps to mitigate the effects of heavy rain.
