**Tropical Update***
As of 11 AM Bertha has become our second hurricane of the 2014 season. Since we are only about a third of the way into the season, we could see several more before all is said and done. The conditions were right to keep this system away from the US mainland. A combination of an offshore subtropical ridge and a trough over Florida helped to steer Bertha away from any land areas.
Bertha will have no direct effects on land with the exception of some rough surf and a higher risk of rip currents.
For the Treasure Coast, high rain chances are in the books for both today and tomorrow. Doppler radar is already picking up developing storms to our south and west. Today is a carry your umbrella day for sure.
