As we continue tracking Beryl, residents should be aware of the storm currently in the Gulf of Mexico. The storm is expected to strengthen into a hurricane over the weekend and make landfall by Monday morning, likely between Corpus Christi and Matagorda Bay.
Recent changes in Beryl’s trajectory suggest that San Antonio will receive less rain, as the storm shifts eastward. Areas to the east of San Antonio are expected to see higher rainfall totals, while our city and areas further west will experience significantly lower amounts of rain.

It’s important to note that Beryl’s path can still change. If the storm moves west, San Antonio could see increased rainfall and wind gusts up to 60 mph. On the other hand, if the storm continues to shift east, we may experience little to no rain and warmer temperatures.
For those planning trips to the Texas Coast this weekend, it’s advisable to reconsider. Coastal areas from Brownsville to Galveston Bay are under a Hurricane Watch and will likely face rain, high surf, rip currents, and storm surges, regardless of the exact landfall location.
Stay updated with the latest weather reports as we continue to monitor Beryl’s progress throughout the weekend.
