First hurricane of the 2008 season forms

Tropical Storm Bertha became Hurricane Bertha this morning. She's a Category 1 and will most likely make Cat 2 sometime today. There's now a slight possibility she'll affect land--Bermuda and possibly the eastern coast of the U.S. We're keeping our eyes on this one.

Update: Well, let's just skip Cat 2 and go right to Cat 3--which is what Bertha has become this evening! And take a gander at that eyewall (below). Oiy!
