NWS Houston has posted a preliminary, unofficial list of wind gusts reported. I have edited it to show all wind gusts of 70 mph or higher. The link at the end of the list is to the full NWS Houston report if you want to look for the reports near your location.

With those wind reports Texas should claim this as getting hit by a major hurricane.

NWS Houston Beryl Unofficial Rainfall Reports

Yeah. For some of the storms that hit sparsely populated areas, there were very few, if any, high wind reports. Maybe the reports for Beryl say something about how the winds are not evenly distributed near the surface due to friction with structures, trees, etc., and having more anemometers in a highly populated area allowed those scattered higher gusts to be measured (?? but I have no clue if that is true).
That 83 mph gust at IAH airport that far inland was impressive.

I'm sitting here inside the loop without power since yesterday. It's times like these I hate living in Houston/Gulf Coast. I know what I signed up for coming here, but my family lives here and I feel like I can't escape this place. Maybe the heat is getting to me and making me a whiny bitch, but I am trying my best to cope with living in a city with shitty government, shitty infrastructure, shitty weather, and shitty power companies. I don't want to start a blame game, but I guess I can only blame myself for choosing to stay here and reap what I sowed.

I'd also throw in that there is no reason that anemometers that are part of the NOAA network should be failing in 50 mph winds, at least not at the rate we see them fail. Then, you look around the world (and even some in the US) and see stations recording 100+ regularly with no problems and it is even more frustrating.
Still, though......my opinion stands. Some of the anemometers in Idalia's landfall area survived, but none of them came anywhere close to major hurricane levels. "Lowly Cat. 1" Barrel produced higher, and equivalent, gusts than Idalia. Also, we're still talking about gusts here, not sustained winds, which is supposed to be the foundation of hurricane ratings.
ETA: That 83mph gust at the Houston airport would have been the second highest gust recorded from Idalia.

No one has power in our neighborhood nor the areas near us.
If I leave the area I get phone service. Came to old Katy to eat lunch.
If anyone needs generators, Camping World in Katy across from Bucees has them. Many options from 2500 up to 10k watt.

I've noticed this over the last few years as well. That wind report with the highest wind gusts reported for Hurricane Beryl is one of the most extensive and impressive reports I've ever seen for a hurricane. I realize that Houston is huge and one of the 10 largest metro areas in the entire country and it stands to reason they'd have a great reporting network but I don't understand why other coastal areas particularly along the Gulf Coast from Louisiana to the far western Florida panhandle seem to have such sparse reporting of winds from landfalling hurricanes.
The wind gust report from Hurricane Sally...a very slow moving high end Cat 2 borderline major hurricane had only 5 or 6 reporting sites in all of Baldwin County where the storm made landfall reporting max wind gusts and only 2 official reports of a 100+ mph wind gusts in the entire storm (121 at Fort Morgan and 104 at Dauphin Island respectively). An 82 mph wind gust on the very outer edge of the northwestern eye wall in downtown Mobile yet not a single wind gust report from 20+ miles east in places like Daphne, Spanish Fort, Fairhope, Magnolia Springs, Robertsdale, etc which all spent at least a couple of hours each in the heart of Sally's northern eyewall.

Centerpoint dropped the ball. Again.
quote:
I believe that we've staged beforehand,” Alyssia Oshodi, CenterPoint Director of Communications, told us.
“In this case, we had our requested resources and we knew that they were ready to respond. However, they were not already in the area prior to Hurricane Beryl hitting,” Oshodi said.
When asked why outside help wasn’t called in earlier, Oshodi responded “I don’t have that specific information.”
The spokesperson conceded that Beryl packed more of a punch than what many believed would happen, and also veered off its initial projected course that “more heavily impacted CenterPoint’s footprint.”
“What we've seen now is more impact than what we originally thought that we were going to see,” Oshodi said.

Yep
Leaving Louisiana for Houston makes 0 sense to me
If I ever left Louisiana it would be for somewhere with a significantly better climate and better quality of life in general

AT&T is having issues across the nation now.
Now wireless some calls are not going through in Louisiana.
WDSU:
The same thing is happening at my office. T-Mobile and Verizon calls are coming through, but AT&T wireless are not going through.
For nostalgia, what happened to big tech centers like these back in the Long Lines Days when calls could be routed to other parts of the network:

NEW ORLEANS —
Ochsner is reporting phone outages from the impacts of post-tropical storm Beryl.
According to a statement issued by Ochsner, AT&T is reporting nationwide outages from the effects of the storm.
The outage includes Ochsner Information systems, resulting in the hospital not being able to receive calls from AT&T numbers and some other phone providers.
Ochsner is recommending patients communicate over the MyOchsner app until the outage is resolved.
Ochsner issued the following statement regarding the outages:
"We realize connectivity issues due to the storm may lead to frustration for our patients. We are recommending they use the MyOchsner app to schedule or reschedule an appointment, request medication refills, send messages to provider teams or chat with a patient technical support agent. (For emergencies, please call 911.)
"We are working closely with the AT&T service team to solve this issue."

Doesn’t matter who was the mayor for the storm in May. Anybody that criticized him for that storm that came out of nowhere is just bitching to bitch.
