So Beryl did have a small area of eyewall winds when it made landfall.
Outside of that area, how far north are the Cat 1 winds extending?
Damage reports are likely to be pretty steep although most of the roofing replaced after Harvey should hold up OK.

The latest update from Alvin, Brazoria County, Texas: Hurricanes suck.

This, my backyard is already a lake and the storm just hit. Just a steady absolute downpour

[Craters]

We live on a corner with three — count 'em, three — sewer drains. The first thing that happens is that they get clogged with the loosest branches, magnolia leaves, pine needles, newspapers that people didn't pick up off their driveways, etc., etc., etc. I went out about an hour ago to try to get that @*#%! out of there during a "lull" between rain bands, and got soaked, of course. The surprising thing is that the rain was considerably warmer than I've felt in most other tropical storms and hurricanes. Weird.

Another eye for Josh.

So happy my wife talked me into an online Genny after the Winter Storm

For those of you who were sleeping like me while making landfall. Good thing it ran out of water and dry air intrusions kept it a bay at yesterday longer than what hurricane models were forecasting.

Lost power at 5:45. These next few days are going to suck.

I am starting to see Hurricane force wind gusts reports in Houston.

This may be a cat 1, but this storm is packing a punch. This thing is wicked. I'm honestly surprised my power is still on. Have an entire new respect for " just a cat 1" and the eye is not expected to hit this area until about 8.......power just went out as I was typing this.

[LARanger]

Definitely looks like a storm that would have caused major troubles if it had 24 more hours over water.

This and the radar suggest the eye finally got itself sorted out better, just as it made landfall . . . glad she didn't have those hours, as she would've made good (bad) use of them.

Speaking for myself, I think I can stop my obsessing over this one, maybe. I'd just about decided it was some unhealthy delayed PTSD response from Ida and the rest. For those in the path with Harvey twitches, this will pass. The bucket truck convoys have already been passing through and getting salutes from us. Good luck and godspeed.

A strengthening cat 1 is always worse than a weakening cat 2.

[NDG]

Half a million customers without power in SE TX and still going up.

Half a million customers without power in SE TX and still going up.

Hopefully short lived outages. Gonna get hot after this moves out.

Yet another system that would’ve been a much bigger problem if it had like 12 more hours over water.

[Charleswachal]

Is it just me or is the eyewall looking stronger than when it made landfall.
