Tropical Storm Bertha Heads for Coast | Miami News

Tropical Storm Bertha barrels toward Louisiana’s coast, packing winds and flooding threats as beaches from Florida to Mississippi shut down. With potential surges up to four feet and two to four inches of rain—possibly more—flash floods loom, especially in cities still recovering from Arthur’s damage. Meanwhile, a separate storm line unleashes tornado warnings from Ohio to New Jersey and flash floods in West Virginia. The National Hurricane Center has issued warnings stretching from the Florida Panhandle to Morgan City, LA, including New Orleans. Though Bertha may weaken as it heads toward Texas, heavy rain and storm surge remain dangerous for days. In the Pacific, Hurricane Fausto, far from land, is intensifying and whipping up dangerous surf and rip currents along Baja California—beachgoers, take extra care.
