This July 10, 2008 NOAA satellite image shows Hurricane Bertha at 1715Z. Centerpoint Latitude: 29:53:26N Longitude: 61:59:30W . Hurricane Bertha barreled steadily northwest towards the British islands of Bermuda on July 10, and could sweep over them in the next few days, the US National Hurricane Center said. The first hurricane of the 2008 season, Bertha's maximum winds slowed to 90 miles per hour (150 k/h), weakening it to a Category One hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. But the Miami-based Center warned it could re-intensify. AFP PHOTO/NOAA/HO/RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE =GETTY OUT=
