HOUSTON — What did the Houston area look like before and after Hurricane Beryl? On Monday -- a week after landfall -- we got a look at it from space.
NOAA Satellites posted before and after images from the satellite NOAA-21. One image is from June 9, well before the storm. The other is from July 9. Beryl made landfall early in the morning on July 8 near Matagorda, Texas, so the images show a before and after view of Houston.
From there, it spent the next few hours on a path right through the city, causing widespread damage and knocking out power to more than two million customers.
The photos show how different the Houston area looked from space after power was knocked out by the Category 1 hurricane.
