BREAKING: The U.S. National Hurricane Center says tropical storm Marco has become a hurricane, is heading for a possible hit on the Louisiana coast this week.

People protect themselves with plastic as Tropical Storm Laura passes through the area in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Sunday, Aug. 23, 2020.

The National Hurricane Center said Marco was about 300 miles south of the mouth of the Mississippi River and heading north-northwest at 14 miles per hour , packing winds of 75 miles per hour . The center warned of life-threatening storm surges and hurricane-force winds along the Gulf Coast.

Crews armed with megaphones in the Dominican capital of Santo Domingo had urged dozens of residents in flood-prone areas to evacuate before Laura’s heavy rains hit. The storm left more than 100,000 people without water in the Dominican Republic on Saturday night, while earlier it snapped trees and knocked out power to more than 200,000 customers in neighboring Puerto Rico.

People in Louisiana headed to stores to stock up on food, water and other supplies. Raymond Monday of Gretna, though, had only a generator on his cart at Sam’s Club. “We’ve got a freezer full of food” at home, along with large containers of water, he said.
