Tropical Storm Bertha Hits Louisiana

Tropical Storm Bertha Hits Louisiana

Tropical Storm Bertha hit southern Louisiana on Wednesday.

It had strong winds and could cause some flooding, but it's not expected to do a lot of damage.

People in the area were told to be ready for rain and high water.

The storm will move to Texas by Friday and then go away.

There were also other storms in the U.S. that caused tornadoes and floods.

It's rare for a place to have both a tropical storm and a heat warning at the same time, like Louisiana did.

Bertha is the second tropical storm of the season.
