Greg Bostwick, Chief Meteorologist at KFDM-TV, reports that Beta remains weak and continues to move toward the Texas coast. Landfall is expected well to our southwest later today between Port Lavaca and Corpus Christi. After landfall, Beta should drift over South Texas tonight into Tuesday before ejecting out to the northeast Wednesday into Thursday.

Locally, periods of rain will continue into Wednesday. However, no flooding is expected with rainfall amounts of no more than 4-7 inches between now and Wednesday night. Occasional wind gusts to 30-40 mph will be possible near the coast mainly today.
