Tropical Storm Bertha is barreling toward the U.S. Gulf Coast, threatening flooding and strong winds from Florida to Louisiana—with landfall expected Wednesday night in a sparsely populated area of Louisiana. Wind is the primary concern, and storm surges up to four feet could slam parts of the coast, while rainfall may trigger flash floods in cities like New Orleans. After weakening inland toward Texas, Bertha’s arrival comes as Mississippi braces for renewed flooding, still recovering from the damage of Tropical Storm Arthur. Residents are sandbagging and closing beaches, while officials stress preparedness—even as no evacuations are currently needed. With this being the second named storm of an otherwise below-average hurricane season, experts remain on high alert.
