What’s going on, guys?! Meteorologist Jonathan Kegges back with you for another edition of Tropics Watch!
That homegrown potential we talked about in last week’s newsletter is now Tropical Storm Bertha.
Recommended Videos
The storm itself is going to stay weak as it skirts across the north Gulf Coast.
Even though water temperatures are very warm in the Gulf, wind shear and dry air will dominate the system.
You can tell wind shear is acting upon Bertha by the fact most of the thunderstorms have been pushed to the southern side of the storm as the shear itself is out of the northeast.
The rest of the Atlantic is nice and quiet and this is NOT a sign that things are about to wake up.
Any questions feel free to hit me at jkegges@wkmg.com
