What does the Dockworker strike mean for you?
SUMMARY: Port workers are currently on strike against the United States Maritime Alliance due to a disagreement over wages and court automation. While this could potentially affect consumer goods, particularly increasing prices for perishable items like coffee and bananas, the exact impact remains uncertain as the strike has just begun. Economists warn that the longer the strike continues, the greater the potential effects on consumers may be. However, there is no reason to panic yet, and updates will be provided as the situation develops.

A focused look at possible tropical development in the Gulf of Mexico
SUMMARY: Hurricane Kirk and a developing tropical depression are currently affecting the tropics, with the next storm potentially named Leslie. The Gulf has had a 40% chance of development, but forecasts remain uncertain. While there are clusters of storms, significant rain is expected mainly along the Gulf Coast. The best chance for precipitation will occur from Thursday into Friday, with temperatures ranging from the 60s to upper 80s. Although scattered storms are probable, the front should push more severe weather to the south, leaving the north shore relatively dry. The forecast looks favorable for the Gretna Fest this weekend.
Meteorologist Devon Lucie breaks down what’s happening in the tropics, specifically what is coming into focus on possible development in the Gulf of Mexico and how it plays into our rain chances here and where a possible system is most likely to develop in the Gulf, how strong it will be, and who is expected to get the most impacts from it.
