Looks like Texas is going to get hit by hurricane Beryl. May or may not be a category 1 when it gets to the Texas coast. Right now its projected path is to hit land in Brownsville which is about 240 miles south of San Antonio. That’s enough distance the hurricane should be downgraded to a tropical storm by the time it hits us. We are on the wet side of the projected path so may get some heavy rains. We need the rain but hopefully not so much we get flooding.

Still hot, they swear it is cooling. Currently 66, going to 106 and it feels kind of humid. Ahhhh, 73% humidity. I wonder if some of this is from Beryl. Skies are clear and blue with no breeze, time to put the AC on.

Totally dodged Beryl here in San Antonio. The hurricane did a pretty big turn to the east and hit Texas between Port Lavaca and Galveston as a Category 1. Bad enough but could have been worse. There is a slight change we might get some much needed rain here in San Antonio later today but nothing like a tropical storm.

We didn’t and aren’t going to get a drop of rain from Beryl. Poor Houston got hammered pretty hard. They had barely recovered from a tropical storm and flooding then get hit with this. Houston is about four hours from San Antonio but a really different climate. By the way, in Texas when we ask or say how far something is we always express it in driving hours not miles. 😬
