TD 2 Targets Gulf Coast, Could Become Bertha

TL;DR Summary
TD 2 formed in the northeast Gulf and is forecast to drift toward southeast Louisiana as a tropical storm by midweek, bringing heavy rainfall along the Gulf Coast and into the Southeast; winds may reach tropical-storm strength (around 60 mph) with some models hinting at hurricane-strength possibilities, while strong wind shear and dry air likely limit rapid intensification. A tropical storm watch is in effect for the western Florida Panhandle, and moisture could feed heavy rains as far northeast as Virginia and the Carolinas.
