On the following day, Bertha re-intensified into a hurricane and peaked as an 80 mph (130 km/h) Category 1 hurricane on July 31. Early on August 2, Bertha made landfall near Sydney, Nova Scotia while weakening and transitioning back into an extratropical cyclone.

In Florida, rough seas caused two fatalities by drowning, as well as at least 200 lifeguard rescues.
