HOUSTON – Tuesday marks one year since Hurricane Beryl ravaged the Greater Houston area, knocking out power to millions of homes.
MOVING FORWARD: $314 million in federal disaster relief could bring major housing aid to Houston
The windstorm caught several by surprise, testing people’s patience as the next morning, many of us had a pitch-black start to our commute. Some of us (like me ) didn’t get power returned to our homes until the end of the week.
This was another blow for some residents who hadn’t even fully recovered from the derecho in May , where several people were killed and some folks were still waiting for debris to be cleaned up.
It certainly doesn’t make things better that we’re still reeling from lives lost in the Hill Country Floods .
