BOSSIER PARISH, La. — The Louisiana Department of Health has confirmed at least one storm-related death in Bossier Parish after Hurricane Beryle made landfall in Texas early Monday.
According to LDH, a 31-year-old woman died after a tree fell on her home in Benton.
Beryl is quickly weakening late Monday as it moves inland toward the Shreveport area as a low-end tropical storm. As the much-weaker system continues on its path north of us on Tuesday, it will drag moisture over us and bring us some scattered downpours. We also have a coastal flood advisory in effect through Tuesday afternoon for minor coastal flooding of up to 1.5 feet. After Tuesday, we'll transition to a more regular summer weather pattern.
