 Brennan says Beryl could produce up to six feet of storm surge on the coast and up to 15 inches of rain inland. 121 Texas counties now covered by a state disaster declaration. The state says it's got 2,000 responders ready to deploy in anticipation of the storm's impacts. Informing the public ahead of the storm, the Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick says the storm won't last long. And the good news is that it looks like it will move quickly through the state. If you'll remember Harvey many years ago, that storm hung around for days at a time because it slowed down dumping rain on rain and rain.
