It’s been over a week since Beryl hit H-Town, but we’re just starting to learn about the short and long-term impacts on businesses that have been without power. Host Raheel Ramzanali is talking ABC13 reporter Pooja Lodhia about that story, how utility workers are being threatened, a new class action case against CenterPoint, and some fond memories about columnist Ken Hoffman.

Here's more about the stories from today's episode.

  • Houston power outages: Abbott says CenterPoint must formulate storm plans as more than 385,000 without power Sunday

  • FEMA opens applications for individuals and business owners impacted by Hurricane Beryl
  • Small Business Administration loans 
  • Derecho-stricken Houstonians forced to face FEMA aid process again after Beryl
  • CenterPoint says threats continue against repair crews after Hurricane Beryl
  • Hurricane Beryl leads to at least 13 Houston area deaths, but a full count is weeks away. Here's why.
