After racking up more accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) than any Atlantic hurricane so early in the season – not to mention hitting category 5 strength at a record-early point – Tropical Storm Beryl was hurtling toward its final landfall. One last round of strengthening is expected before Beryl reaches the middle Texas coast early Monday morning, and Beryl could make landfall as a rapidly intensifying category 1 or 2 hurricane. Update: As of midnight EDT Sunday night, Beryl was once again a hurricane, packing top sustained winds of 75 mph, and was located about 65 miles south-southeast of Matagorda, Texas, moving north-northwest at 10 mph. Further strengthening was expected, though the odds of Beryl arriving at Cat 2 strength had diminished given the short amount of remaining time it will have over water.
