Radar shows that an outer rainband from Beryl is well offshore with some heavy rain indicated. Bands of rain will begin to move onto the coast later this morning into this afternoon. This will not be continuous rain and there will be big breaks between bands.
More widespread rain will begin tonight with the heaviest rainfall tomorrow morning into tomorrow afternoon. Since Beryl will keep moving, the rain will begin to diminish Monday evening with just a few showers expected by Tuesday. Keep in the mind that this not a Harvey or Imelda type of situation.....no high pressure block is in place to trap Beryl like we had particularly with Harvey.
Rainfall totals of 2-4 inches look likely locally.....4-8 inches in the Houston area....and up to 12 inches in the Matagorda area near the landfall location.
Winds should gust to 30-40 mph in our area, mainly near the coast. Gusts to 55 mph possible on the Bolivar Peninsula....gusts to 60-70 mph in the Houston area...mainly on the southwest side...Brazoria and Fort Bend counties. These gusts will be mainly in heavier rain squalls.
Tides look to run 2-4 feet above normal on the Bolivar Peninsula beginning tonight into Monday.
