Beryl aftermath

 

Life-threatening heat is gripping southeast Texas, where nearly 2 million homes and businesses remain without power and air conditioning in the wake of storm Beryl's deadly and destructive landfall. Beryl tore through the state Monday, flooding coastal communities, shredding homes and ripping down webs of power lines. Phone and internet access has also been cut off in some communities, including Galveston. Prolonged heat is now threatening to pose significant health risks for the elderly, homeless people and children. Cooling centers have opened across the state as temperatures creep into the 90s and heat indices reach 105 degrees in some areas.

Power outages

 

More than 1.3 million homes and businesses across southeast Texas are still without power after Beryl slammed into the Gulf Coast as a Category 1 hurricane on Monday. Countless families have lost food in their warming fridges while many stores are still closed, leaving local authorities scrambling to distribute food to underserved areas. Heat-related medical emergencies are also spiking in Houston as 90-degree temperatures blanket parts of the state, city fire chief Samuel Peña said. Senior care facilities and residents who rely on electric medical devices are particularly at risk as power outages stretch through at least the end of the week.

Map: Pivotal Weather

A potentially devastating hurricane poses a nightmare scenario for flooding across the Southeast this week, Axios extreme weather expert Andrew Freedman writes.

  • Hurricane Debby — which strengthened into a Category 1 storm late last night in the Gulf of Mexico — could tie or break state records for rainfall from a single storm in Georgia and South Carolina.

Threat level: The National Weather Service describes the potential rainfall as "historic and potentially catastrophic."

  • The hurricane is "expected to move slowly across northern Florida and southern Georgia Monday and Tuesday, and be near the Georgia coast by Tuesday night."

Hurricane Debby

 

Hurricane Debby, a Category 1 storm, is nearing landfall with the eyewall moving onshore in the Florida Big Bend area, according to the National Hurricane Center. Forecasts show Debby will slowly traverse over the Southeast US and dump potentially catastrophic rainfall over widespread parts of Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. More than 100,000 homes and businesses are already without power across Florida as Debby's hurricane-force winds begin to batter the state, according to PowerOutage.us. Hundreds of flights have been canceled and delayed in the region and several school systems have announced temporary closures. View CNN's Storm Tracker to see Debby's projected path.

 

How Hurricane Debby is impacting Central Florida

Hurricane Debby made a destructive landfall Monday morning near Steinhatchee in Florida’s Big Bend area, but Central Florida also felt the impact of the storm.

🌀 Flooding nightmare

Forecast rainfall amounts from the NWS through Friday. Image: Weatherbell.com

Tropical Storm Debby will likely be the heaviest rainstorm on record for many communities in the Southeast — particularly southeastern Georgia and South Carolina, Axios extreme weather expert Andrew Freedman writes.

  • Expect flash flood emergencies — indicating dire threats to life and property — to be issued in the hardest hit areas today and tomorrow.

Threat level: The urban areas from Savannah to Charleston are extremely vulnerable to flooding, especially the combination of storm surge-related flooding at the coast and heavy rainfall-induced floods.

Tropical storm Debby could ease drought

D.C.'s drought conditions could see a bit of relief with rain this week and tropical storm Debby approaching.

The big picture: Residents are asked to use water wisely as the region copes with below-average rainfall.

State of play: The District is in moderate to severe drought conditions, as of the latest figures last Thursday from the U.S. Drought Monitor.

  • The District and Arlington receive their water entirely from the Potomac River, which is low right now. The area still has an adequate water supply thanks to reservoirs, which are 90% full.

What we're watching: T-storms and showers are in the forecast for the rest of this week as the remnants of tropical storm Debby reach the area.

Reality check: Still, the D.C. region needs three inches of rain to get out of its drought, per WTOP. It's the 39th driest summer so far with just about six inches of rain.
