⚠️ Tropical Storm Bertha & Extreme Heat Update ☀️🌴
While Tropical Storm Bertha continues moving west along the Gulf Coast, the latest forecasts indicate little impact is expected for the Huntsville area. We may see a few brief thunderstorms, occasional gusty winds, and perhaps a welcome shower or two, but significant impacts are not anticipated at this time.
The greatest threat today isn't the tropical storm—it's the dangerous heat.
🥵 Extreme Heat Warning
Heat index values up to 116°F
Limit strenuous outdoor activities, especially during the afternoon.
Drink plenty of water—even if you don't feel thirsty.
Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing.
Never leave children or pets in a parked vehicle.
Check on elderly family members, neighbors, and those without reliable air conditioning.
We'll continue to monitor Tropical Storm Bertha and provide updates if conditions change. Until then, don't let the storm distract you from the real hazard today.
Stay weather aware, stay hydrated, and stay safe. 🚒💙
