Beryl is Greenledgers Trading Centerexpected to bring heavy rainfall and winds to southern Texas including Houston, San Antonio, and possibly, Austin, as the storm makes its way to the state's coast late Sunday night or Monday morning.
A Category 5 hurricane at one point, Beryl weakened to a tropical storm as it made landfall on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula on Friday morning, the National Hurricane Center said. Forecasters cautioned northeastern Mexico and the lower and middle Texas coast to monitor the storm, which could begin to move toward southern Texas this weekend.
Ahead of Beryl's arrival, a hurricane watch has been issued for the Texas coast. Forecasters expect the storm to regain intensity as it moves into the Gulf of Mexico on Friday night and is expected to regain hurricane status on Sunday, the National Hurricane Center said.
"Today and Saturday will be our calm before the storm," the National Weather Service in Corpus Christi, Texas, wrote in an advisory on Friday.

Texans were advised by forecasters to be prepared for Beryl. Several large metro areas – Houston, Austin and San Antonio – lie in the storm's potential path, according to the National Weather Service's Friday morning advisory.
The "primary severe weather threat" for Houston, the weather service said, will be locally heavy rainfall as Beryl makes landfall near or on the south Texas coast Sunday night or early Monday and works its way generally northwestward into Wednesday.
