## Resource

Tropical Storm Bertha barely made a splash in Louisiana, with locals like marina owner Robert Campo joking they’d welcome more “mild” storms. The reason? High-altitude wind shear, likely fueled by El Niño, tore apart Bertha’s structure and steered rain away. Forecasters predict a quieter hurricane season overall, with only two named storms so far — both kept weak by the same shear. But don’t relax yet: last year’s record-breaking season proved El Niño doesn’t guarantee calm. Every storm still demands attention — conditions can shift fast.
