wondered about airlifts too. Also wonder how many people are still holed up in their attics thinking they're safe. And now the water's rising. Just heard on another thread that martial law has been declared.

Fishing boats and axes work too. Rescuers could go from house to house and knock on the roof. If someone is in the attic, break a hole and get them out. It's over 24 hours so this needs to happen fast. Rescue is limited during night hours, daylight is burning. MSNBC reporter heard people yelling for help last night; she was on the phone and her voice was very distressed.
