Governor Abbott emphasized the importance of this declaration, stating, "As Hurricane Beryl approaches Texas, a severe weather disaster declaration has been issued for 40 counties to ensure at-risk communities have access to the resources and assistance needed to respond to this storm."

The disaster declaration, issued by Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick as Acting Governor, includes counties such as Aransas, Atascosa, Bee, Bexar, Brooks, Calhoun, Cameron and many others. Additional counties may be added as conditions warrant.
According to the National Hurricane Center, Hurricane Beryl is expected to briefly weaken before intensifying as it moves northwestward through the Gulf of Mexico. As it approaches land, there is an increased risk for rip currents along beaches across the Gulf Coast. Beachgoers are urged to heed warnings from lifeguards and local officials before entering the water.
Texans are advised to stay informed about weather updates and follow directions from local officials. They are also encouraged to make an emergency plan and review hurricane evacuation routes. It is important for residents in at-risk areas to build a kit containing emergency supplies and consider reviewing flood risk and insurance coverage.
