About this episode

Tropical Storm Bertha is approaching the Gulf Coast, bringing severe weather warnings and potential flooding.

Tropical Storm Bertha is barreling toward the Florida Panhandle and Alabama, packing winds that could hit tropical storm strength within 36 hours. Storm surge watches are up along the Gulf Coast, warning of life-threatening flooding up to 4 feet in parts of Louisiana, Alabama, and Florida. Heavy rain, isolated tornadoes, and flash flooding are expected from western Florida to central Texas through Friday. Meanwhile, Hurricane Fausto in the eastern Pacific is churning but poses no land threat — though dangerous surf is on the rise. Stay alert and stay informed if you’re along the Gulf Coast.
