 The U.S. death toll from Hurricane Beryl is up to at least eight. Seven people were confirmed dead Monday in the Houston area after the Category 1 storm brought flooding, heavy rain, and high winds to the area. In Louisiana, at least one person was killed by a falling tree. More than one million East Texans are without power thanks to Beryl. All the electricity could stay out in the Houston area for at least another day of near triple-digit weather.
