Gulf states brace as Gustav looms

Officials in some Gulf Coast states spent the third anniversary of Hurricane Katrina on Friday gearing up for what could be the biggest threat to the region since Katrina hit in 2005. Hurricane Gustav is poised may approach the U.S. Gulf Coast by Tuesday morning as a Category 2 or 3 hurricane, the National Hurricane Center said Friday. <p><a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~a/rss/cnn_us?a=4w2GJr"><img src="http://rss.cnn.com/~a/rss/cnn_us?i=4w2GJr" border="0"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?a=gySQTK"><img src="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?i=gySQTK" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?a=rYF2QK"><img src="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?i=rYF2QK" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?a=cVRmkk"><img src="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?i=cVRmkk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?a=zaGDnK"><img src="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?i=zaGDnK" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?a=Lj4btk"><img src="http://rss.cnn.com/~f/rss/cnn_us?i=Lj4btk" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://rss.cnn.com/~r/rss/cnn_us/~4/378485827" height="1" width="1"/>
