The storm continues to move west-northwest at 5 to 10 mph.
The heaviest rain associated with the storm is staying to the south of the Mississippi Delta.
Bertha is expected to maintain tropical storm strength as it moves through southern Louisiana and back into the Gulf by early Thursday morning. It is on track to move through Texas by late Thursday.
Even though the center of the storm will pass through Galveston and Houston, the heaviest rain will affect areas like Corpus Christi and Victoria, Texas.
Bertha is on track to dissipate by the start of this weekend.
