Episode Details

Tropical Storm Bertha is barreling toward southeast Louisiana, bringing dangerous storm surge, heavy rain, and flash flood risks. With a Tropical Storm Warning now in effect across the New Orleans metro, Lake Pontchartrain, and beyond, residents face up to four feet of surge near the Mississippi River mouth. While today’s heat remains oppressive—with highs in the 90s and heat indexes near 110—prepare for a dramatic shift overnight as Bertha stalls and intensifies. Expect 2-4 inches of rain, with some areas seeing up to 6 inches by Thursday, triggering flooding in low-lying zones. The storm will weaken as it moves west, but lingering moisture means scattered storms could still pop up Friday. Stay alert, stay cool, and stay informed as Bertha makes its move.
