As of 5:50 a.m. CT, 2.3 million Texas homes and businesses reported being without power, according to poweroutage.us, after Beryl made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane early Monday morning and made its way across the eastern part of the state before dissipating to a tropical storm and continuing its path to Arkansas.
