AFAIK, most of the community dropoffs are now coordinated with state and local relief. and yes - stay out of the areas, its a mess and coordination over the next few days rather than ad hoc scramble is what will save the most lives.

I have persoanlly heard a steady stream of millitary large transport helicopters over my area, so I know materials and personnel may be getting through.
