Tropical Storm Bertha has formed in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico and is projected to impact areas along the Gulf Coast, stretching from Florida to Louisiana, and potentially reaching as far west as Texas.

As the second named storm of the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season, Bertha currently boasts winds of 40 mph, with forecasts indicating a possibility of further strengthening.

The storm is expected to bring heavy rainfall, coastal flooding, and winds strong enough to meet tropical storm criteria throughout the week for regions in its path.
