Hurricane Beryl tore through Houston on Monday, July 8, in a matter of hours. But its impacts — damaged homes, days on end without power, flooded streets, exhausted residents, and at least eight people in the area lost their lives — have lasted over a week.

Houston Landing’s photojournalists, Antranik Tavitian and Marie D. De Jesús, spread out from Sugar Land, Galveston, and northeast Harris County, documenting the storm’s damage and the painstakingly slow process of returning power to more than 2.5 million across the region, with 200,000 still counting.
