TV interview with two poor women with kids, no transportation, no money, nowhere to go. They're stoic, going to ride out the storm. No panic, no concept of what they faced. They were pushing their kids on swings in a nearby park. Hopeless. I felt like screaming. Authorities said they'd go through neighborhoods with buses to get people out and take them to area shelters. God, I hope so.

That is heartbreaking.
Dear God...
Why does this remind me of the nuns in the Galveston hurricane of 1900 who tied clothes lines around their waists and then around the waists of many of the orphans they cared for.
None survived. They were discovered later, still tied together.
Frankly, the government should offer to take them. I am not much for govt. services etc., but this is one time the govt. needs to do it.
I hope churches are helping to evac homeless etc. as well.
