THE. JAGUARS 20 TO 17. WE ARE TRACKING TROPICAL STORM FRANCINE AS OF 10:00. OFFICIALLY BECOMING A TROPICAL STORM. KIND OF CLOUDY. RIGHT NOW WITH SOME SHOWERS, BUT THE MAIN DAY THAT WE'RE GOING TO SEE THE WEATHER IS GOING TO BE WEDNESDAY, LET'S GET RIGHT TO WDSU. FIRST WARNING RADAR, WHICH IS REALLY GOING TO COME IN HANDY WEDNESDAY. YOU'RE GOING TO BE AT HOME AND YOU'RE GOING TO BE RIDING OUT THE STORM. MAKE SURE YOU'RE WATCHING US HERE ON WDSU BECAUSE WITH OUR OWN LIVE LOCAL RADAR, WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO SHOW YOU THE RAIN AND THE WINDS AND EVERYTHING ASSOCIATED WITH THIS STORM BETTER THAN ANYBODY, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE STORMS OUT IN THE GULF OF MEXICO APPROACHING EARLY WEDNESDAY. ALL RIGHT. HERE'S A LOOK AT FRANCINE. ABOUT 575 MILES AWAY FROM US. IT WAS A TROPICAL DEPRESSION UPGRADED TO A TROPICAL STORM AT 10:00 THIS MORNING. LOOKS BETTER ORGANIZED THAN IT DID ABOUT 24 HOURS AGO. OR SO. AND QUITE FRANKLY, IT LOOKS PRETTY OMINOUS OUT HERE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO. NOW, HERE'S THE LATEST FORECAST TRACK FROM THE HURRICANE CENTER BECOMING A CATEGORY ONE STORM. ACCORDING TO THE HURRICANE CENTER. PROBABLY SOMETIME TUESDAY EVENING. WEDNESDAY IS THE DAY THAT THE WEATHER GETS BAD FOR EVERYBODY WATCHING THIS BROADCAST. IN THE STATE OF LOUISIANA. 7 A.M. OUT HERE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO BY 7 P.M., QUITE POSSIBLY COMING ON SHORE. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE THIS TRACK CHANGES A LITTLE BIT, WHETHER IT SPEEDS UP OR SLOWS DOWN OR GOES A LITTLE BIT FARTHER TO THE WEST. WEDNESDAY IS THE BAD WEATHER DAY. WE'RE GOING TO GET RAIN. WE'RE GOING TO GET WIND. WE'RE GOING TO GET STORM SURGE. HERE'S A CLOSE UP LOOK AGAIN AT THE CURRENT FORECAST TRACK. BUT JUST REMEMBER WEDNESDAY IS THE DAY WE RIDE THIS OUT. BY THURSDAY I THINK THE WEATHER SHOULD BE IMPROVING SIGNIFICANTLY. TROPICAL STORM WATCH IN EFFECT FOR THE AREAS THAT YOU SEE HIGHLIGHTED HERE. IF YOU'RE NOT AFFECTED BY THAT, YOU'RE AFFECTED BY A HURRICANE. WATCH. THIS IS WHERE WE COULD POSSIBLY SEE HURRICANE CONDITIONS IN THE NEXT 48 HOURS, WHICH OBVIOUSLY WOULD BE WEDNESDAY. STORM SURGE WATCH IN EFFECT FOR MUCH OF THE COASTLINE. AND WE HAVE A FLOOD WATCH. ALSO IN EFFECT THAT'S IN EFFECT UNTIL 7:00 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING ON THURSDAY. GOES IN EFFECT FIRST THING IN THE MORNING, 7 A.M. TOMORROW. WE'RE GOING TO GET SOME RAIN TOMORROW, BUT WEDNESDAY IS THE DAY. LET'S GO AHEAD AND TAKE A LOOK AT THIS COMPUTER MODEL. GIVING US A GENERAL IDEA. THE WAY IT SHOULD PLAY OUT STARTING TUESDAY MORNING. A TUESDAY AFTERNOON. OKAY, WE'RE GETTING SOME RAIN COMING IN ESPECIALLY CLOSE TO THE COAST. TUESDAY IS GOING TO BE AN INCLEMENT WEATHER DAY. CHANCE FOR RAIN OFFICIALLY ABOUT 90 TO EVEN 100%. BUT THIS ISN'T THE REAL BAD WEATHER. 6 P.M. TUESDAY. GOING TO MIDNIGHT. ALL RIGHT, HERE WE ARE. MIDNIGHT GOING FROM TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. HERE COME THE HEAVY RAINS. WINDS GETTING STRONGER, RAINS COMING IN, STORM SURGE OF POSSIBILITY. LOOK AT THAT. THERE YOU GO. THAT WAS YOUR LATE MORNING. AND EARLY AFTERNOON ON WEDNESDAY. HERE'S YOUR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. OBVIOUSLY WINDS ARE GOING TO BE STRONG. STORM SURGE IS GOING TO BE A FACTOR IF YOU'RE CLOSE TO THE COAST. AS A MATTER OF FACT, SPEAKING OF THE STORM SURGE, AND HERE WE ARE BY THURSDAY SEEING IMPROVING WEATHER CONDITIONS. THIS GIVES YOU AN IDEA HOW MUCH RAIN WE COULD SEE WITH FRANCINE. ACCORDING TO THIS MODEL, ANYWHERE FROM 4 TO 5IN STORM SURGE. NOW THAT'S GOING TO BE A CONCERN, ESPECIALLY FOR GRAND ISLE, LAFOURCHE PARISH, PLAQUEMINES PARISH, ANYWHERE FROM 4 TO 7FT OF STORM SURGE, A POSSIBILITY IN THE METRO AREA. ANYWHERE FROM 2 TO 4FT. LISTEN, WE'RE JUST GOING TO RIDE THIS THING OUT WEDNESDAY. WE'RE GOING TO BE ON THE AIR ALL THE TIME HERE ON WDSU, SHOWING YOU WHAT'S GOING ON IN YOUR COMMUNITY, SHOWING YOU WHAT THE RADAR LOOKS LIKE. MOSTLY CLOUDY, SCATTERED SHOWERS THIS AFTERNOON. NOT BAD WEATHER. MAKE THOSE FINAL PREPARATIONS ACTUALLY HAVE TOMORROW TO MOSTLY CLOUDY. CHANCE FOR SHOWERS TONIGHT AND THEN TOMORROW. SURE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE OFF AND ON WET WEATHER, NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS, WINDS STARTING TO PICK UP, ESPECIALLY BY THE EVENING. BUT THERE YOU GO. WEDNESDAY. WINDY CONDITIONS, HURRICANE LIKE CONDITIONS ACROSS THE BOARD IN MANY CIRCUMSTANCES. THURSDAY. STILL GOING TO HAVE RAIN, ESPECIALLY EARLY IN THE DAY, BUT IT SHOULD BE AN IMPROVING WEATHER DAY. AND THEN BY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE WE MAY GET A TOUCH LESS HUMID, MORE WEATHER COMING UP RIGHT HERE THROUGHOUT THE DAY ON WDSU AND
