PORT LAVACA, Texas – An area of Texas coastline tortured twice by Hurricane Harvey in 2017 is not taking any chances as Tropical Storm Beryl nears landfall.

Crews at the lone H-E-B in Port Lavaca, located in Calhoun County and approximately 130 miles southwest of Houston, were installing shutters Sunday as a measure to stave off storm damage within the store.
