In reply to the discussion: UPDATED: Hurricane Florence rapidly intensifies to Category 4, evacuation orders begin in N.C. [View all]FBaggins
(26,735 posts)14. FEMA started working the storm late last week
What would expect to have heard from them at this point?
This far ahead, they're mostly repositioning supplies from GA/MD to military bases closer to the expected impact areas (though further inland than some might expect).
They've already grabbed so many trucks that freightwaves.com is predicting the possibility of a "black swan" event shifting freight availability all up and down the east coast.
