Everyone should remain out of the water due to life-threatening surf conditions. Stay off of jetties, piers, and other waterside infrastructure. Swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax and float. Don't swim against the current. If able, swim in a direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.

TROPICAL STORM BERTHA WILL BRING COASTAL AND OFFSHORE IMPACTS LATER TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING
NEW INFORMATION
-
CHANGES TO WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- The Storm Surge Watch has been cancelled for Baldwin Coastal and Mobile Coastal
- The Tropical Storm Watch has been upgraded to a Tropical Storm Warning for Escambia Coastal, Okaloosa Coastal, and Santa Rosa Coastal
-
CURRENT WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for Baldwin Central, Baldwin Coastal, Escambia Coastal, Mobile Central, Mobile Coastal, Okaloosa Coastal, and Santa Rosa Coastal
-
STORM INFORMATION:
- About 140 miles southeast of Mobile AL or about 100 miles south-southeast of Pensacola FL
- 29.3N 86.3W
- Storm Intensity 60 mph
- Movement North-northwest or 345 degrees at 3 mph
SITUATION OVERVIEW
Tropical Storm Bertha continues to move very slowly to the northwest. A general northwest to west- northwest motion is expected today into tonight with the center of Bertha moving into the offshore Gulf waters of northwest Florida and Alabama this afternoon and into tonight. The storm will move further west and out of the local area during the day on Wednesday. While some slight strengthening is possible over the next 12 hours, Bertha is likely to weaken some on its closest approach to the local area. Primary impacts from Bertha remain focused near the coastline and over the Gulf waters.
Dangerous surf and beach conditions are expected. A high risk of deadly rip currents is in effect through much of the week. A High Surf Warning remains in effect due to surf building to 8 to 11 feet along the Gulf beaches, reaching peak heights tonight into early Wednesday morning. These large breaking waves will result in minor beach erosion, along with flooding of vulnerable areas of the west end of Dauphin Island and the Ft. Pickens area of Gulf Islands National Seashore.
Coastal Flood Warnings are now in effect for the Alabama coast and portions of the northwest FL coast. Coastal flooding will bring 1 to 3 feet of inundation along the Alabama and Florida coasts, coinciding with high tide Wednesday morning.
Due to the sheared nature of the storm, most of the heavy rainfall will remain well south across the open Gulf. However, locally heavy rainfall cannot be ruled out in any rainbands that approach the coast.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-
OTHER COASTAL HAZARDS: Dangerous surf and beach conditions are expected. A high risk of deadly rip currents continues through much of the week. Surf builds to 8-11 feet tonight through Wednesday.
-
SURGE: Protect against locally hazardous surge having possible limited impacts across coastal Alabama and coastal Florida. Potential impacts in this area include:
- Localized inundation with storm surge flooding mainly along immediate shorelines and in low-lying spots, or in areas farther inland near where higher surge waters move ashore.
- Sections of near-shore roads and parking lots become overspread with surge water. Driving conditions dangerous in places where surge water covers the road.
- Moderate beach erosion. Heavy surf also breaching dunes, mainly in usually vulnerable locations. Strong rip currents.
- Minor to locally moderate damage to marinas, docks, boardwalks, and piers. A few small craft broken away from moorings.
Elsewhere across portions of southwest Alabama,south central Alabama,and inland southeast Mississippi., little to no impact is anticipated.
- WIND:
