Yes, you can drop supplies. But, I've read there were people shooting at them yesterday while trying to do so at the roof top of hospital. Boats stopped because they were being shot at and boats being stolen. Trucks en-route with supplies were being shot at. Makes it difficult at best.

Interesting piece of news:

EarthWatch Update:
Meteorologist: Glenn Schwartz
Updated: 12:30 p.m. Thursday

We have four potential tropical systems out there.

Slideshow: Glenn Looks At The 4 Tropical Systems Forming

One became a storm that is tropical depression Lee, but it is way out in the Atlantic.

Tropical depression number 14 may be the most potentially dangerous system, possibly affecting the Caribbean in a week.

And there is another one, northeast of the Bahamas we also will be following. This is not too far off Florida and that one will have to be watched as well.

A fourth storm is to the far east and it may also have potential to be a big system.

So? People get shot at in Iraq all the time, but it doesn't ground the planes.
