There is no telling how many people are still out there - It looks like rescues are still going on at this hour.
It does. I'm so glad.
CNN (before replaying this) had a guy on who said around 500 people have been rescued--not all in the dark--but many! And I think that was in this 20 sq mile area Meserve is talking about.
There will be rescues going on for days.

Many, many waiting to be rescued. A couple of hours ago the CNN cameraman that went on some rescue missions said that the estimates he heard was 500-1000. However they also were told that the area they saw was not the worst.
But you know what, they may be miserable and waiting, but they are alive, and will be rescued.
