indeed the Red Cross is faced with it's largest mobilization ever. already hundreds of volunteers from across the country and paid staff are deployed and mobilized to the impacted areas. I'm heading there myself as a second wave to relieve the first ARC teams. I'm waiting for my assignments and dates.
The relief effort will last many weeks. Food, shelter, water and a shoulder to rest on are all provided by the Red Cross and all is provided by donated dollars. The recovery effort will doubtless last much longer....years in fact. The Red Cross will be there for that too. All the while we're monitoring and watching for the next one. Especially here, on the east coast of florida. The ARC won hearts here last season with our double hit. Now of course, the double hit seems insignificant.

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center
