1508 ET - U.S. natural gas futures settle higher with the market looking to tomorrow's weekly storage report and keeping an eye on Tropical Storm Bertha as the system moves along the Louisiana coast toward Texas. "Impacts are expected to be minor and mainly through the loss of a little demand due to clouds and showers, along with the potential for minor LNG and U.S. production disruptions along the U.S. Gulf Coast," NatGasWeather.com says in a note. Earth Science Associates estimates lost offshore natural gas production between 2.4 Bcf and 3.2 Bcf due to the storm. Nymex natural gas settles up 2.1% at $2.925/mmBtu.(anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
