Bertha has transitioned to a post tropical storm, and the center is remaining away from land areas, leaving the Atlantic Quiet.
However, Hawaii has an approaching Hurricane, Iselle, and another hurricane, Julio behind that.
Hurricane Warnings are up for the Big Island of Hawaii, and a Tropical Storm warning is up for Maui.
The last hurricane warning issued for any island in Hawaii was in 1992, with Iniki.
CPHC Info and Advisories on Iselle
Iselle, through recon reports, has been stronger than anticipated at this time, which warranted the Hurricane Warning for the big Island. The actual track of the storm is slightly north of the forecast track in the above image, which would likely mean more impact for the Big Island and Maui than currently indicated.
Typically flhurricane does not cover storms outside the Atlantic, but exceptions are made for Hawaii. The available resources are much less, however.

NOAA and Air Force hurricane hunters have made an extended trip out to Diamonhead in Hawaii to run missions to the storm.
