NHC says 50% chance of cyclone formation in next 48 hours off Louisiana coast

A low-pressure system ~125 miles south of southeastern Louisiana has a ~50% chance of forming into a cyclone within the next 48 hours, per the U.S. National Hurricane Center. The risk of storm formation is modestly negative for near-term logistics and regional energy operations, though it is not yet confirmed to become a major market-moving event.
