Residents have been urged to take matters into their own hands and start prepping. This comes as the storm rapidly approached hurricane strength less than a day after forming in the Gulf of Mexico.
Mayor-President of Baton Rouge, Sharon Weston Broome told locals to take safety measures during a Monday news conference. “It’s crucial that all of us take this storm very seriously,” Broome emphasized.
Broome advised residents to put together disaster supply kits with enough food and essential supplies to last at least 72 hours. She also stressed that before Francine hits, everyone in the area should have a solid plan and be ready to hunker down in a sturdy structure.

“When this storm starts affecting our area on Wednesday, I want everyone in East Baton Rouge Parish to have a plan to be inside a sturdy structure for the duration of the storm,” Broome added.
Furthermore, the National Hurricane Center has sounded the alarm. The agency stated that Tropical Storm Francine is expected to intensify into a Category 2 hurricane before it crashes ashore on Wednesday.
With storm surges potentially reaching up to 10 feet and rainfall totals of up to 12 inches, Francine isn’t holding back. This storm means business. As Francine prepares to unleash her fury on the Gulf Coast, the residents of Texas and Louisiana are being urged to stay vigilant.
Whether you’re near the coastline or further inland, it’s time to keep one eye on the sky – because Francine’s coming, and she’s bringing all the wind she can carry.
