(NewsNation) — Tropical Storm Beryl sped across Texas on Monday, leaving four dead and almost 3 million people and businesses without power. The storm is now headed northeast, threatening to carve a harsh path over several more states in the coming days.

"Houston area conditions are gradually improving there, the winds are starting to come down, the rainfall has stopped, but there's still flash flood warnings in place, still high water in many places, power's out, damage to trees and powerlines is still a dangerous situation there. But in terms of the active weather, our focus is now shifting northward and eastward," National Hurricane Center Director Michael Brennan said.

Brennan joined "NewsNation Now" to discuss the latest developments from the storm's destruction, saying it is likely to spur some tornado warnings.
