Tropical Storm Erika Fizzles Before Landfall Near Brownsville
Tropical Storm Erika weakened and dissipated after making landfall near the edge of Matamoros and Brownsville, causing minor damage in Mexico and prompting mass sheltering of Rio Grande Valley residents. Forecasters said landfall strength was below hurricane status as warnings were canceled and inland terrain expected to erode the system by Sunday. Residents faced power outages and heavy rains that spared the area significant destruction.
