Tropical Storm Beryl battered downtown Houston, bringing heavy rain and flooding as it tracked north over Texas on Monday, July 8.
At least seven people are reported dead across the city region, the Houston Chronicle said, citing local officials.
Drone footage by local resident Charles Blain shows flooding downtown.
Though Beryl had been downgraded from a hurricane, forecasters said heavy rain, floods and tropical-storm-force winds were possible as the system tracked further inland.
More than 2.3 million residents remained without power on Monday night, according to outage trackers. Credit: Charles Blain via Storyful
