SUMMARY: Hurricane season officially begins June 1, but tropical activity could start earlier, especially in the Caribbean and East Pacific. Computer models sometimes overhype early storms, so rely on trusted sources to avoid misinformation. Current signals indicate a small chance of early disturbances due to favorable conditions like decreased wind shear and increasing moisture tied to the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO), which supports tropical development. While a major hurricane this early is unlikely, early-season tropical systems forming or moving between the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific remain possible, as seen with past storms. Stay prepared and informed from reliable weather outlets.

SUMMARY: Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico criticized the EU’s plan to end Russian natural gas imports by 2027, calling it “absolutely unacceptable” and threatening a veto. The European Commission aims to ban new Russian gas contracts by the end of 2024 and phase out existing ones by 2027 to cut revenue for Putin’s war in Ukraine. Slovakia, which has a gas deal with Russia until 2034, warns this will raise gas prices and seeks compensation if the plan proceeds. Fico, known for his pro-Russia stance, also opposes halting oil and nuclear fuel imports from Russia and supports close ties with Moscow despite domestic protests.

SUMMARY: A Florida woman, Alexis Rosati, is accused of impersonating a police officer at a Walmart parking lot in Port Orange. She allegedly flashed a real but stolen badge and gave a man a fake traffic warning over a parking spot. Rosati reportedly took the badge from an elderly client, a retired law enforcement officer unaware his badge was missing. The incident was recorded by the customer, who reported her to police. Rosati faces charges of pretending to be a law enforcement officer and unlawful use of badges. Authorities advise documenting and reporting fake cop encounters without escalating the situation.
