The NHC staff should appear in front of a large banner that says "TIME TO PANIC."

I think that's a wise move!
I really don't want them around...
I would welcome help directly from certain other DHS agencies (re. USCG), if necessary, though.

I applied for a FEMA trailer on September 5th.

I see them for the first time across the street, installing my neighbor's trailer.

No telling when I will get mine.
