Just received this note from a SpaceX engineer helping on the ground in North Carolina. 

@FEMA is not merely failing to adequately help people in trouble, but is actively blocking citizens who try to help!

It’s very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now on the shipments of new starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire dept. but that may not be enough.”
