I would think relief organizations would set up off the island. Those rescued are being removed. Sorry FReeper-reporters but IMO the best thing they could do would be to get the reporters off the island.
Amen to that. Let those trained to do so, sort it all out. Reporters are just in the way.
It makes me SO angry that reporters who do not own property are allowed on the coast while we, who have owned a home there for thirty five years are NOT allowed back into Lake Jackson yet. I want to go stake out in front of Geraldo’s home and tell him he has to evacuate! LOL
Lake Jackson has a tiny airport and it will be the site of Recovery Staging Point for Galveston for the next two weeks. No other air traffic will be allowed there. We are HAPPY to do it for them and we know it could have been the other way around. If we had taken the direct hit, they would be helping us.
And I have not called 911 and expected FEMA to answer.
