STORYLINE:
Tropical Storm Francine is churning in extremely warm waters in the Gulf of Mexico with increasing strength.
It is expected to reach hurricane status Tuesday before making landfall in Louisiana on Wednesday afternoon as a Category 2 hurricane with winds of 96 to 110 mph.
New Orleans area residents and volunteers lined up at the Dryades YMCA filling sand bags to prevent flooding at their homes.
As storm preparations continue all over the state, workers from the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-West closed floodgates along the Harvey Canal, just outside the New Orleans city limits, in anticipation of the storm.
