June 1 is here, and that means #TeamTangi will be watching the tropics for any potential threats to our community. This is the latest forecast from the National Weather Service, and it calls for only a 20 percent chance of development over the next seven days. Here's what we know: Overview: There is a LOW (20%) chance of tropical cyclone development over the next 7 days. This system is forecast to meander in the central and eastern Gulf of Mexico over the next day or so, then eventually will drift southeastward towards the Florida Peninsula. Impacts: This system is not expected to bring any significant impacts to the local area at this time. For updates, stay tuned to local media and our Tangipahoa.org/news-updates page.
