Perhaps if we weren't having our little misadventure in the Middle East
and using National Guard troops to do the job we could airlift people
north. But no.
And President Bush and his cronies quietly killed a major storm rebuild

And from what I've been reading - this could also impact gasoline
prices. Lots of refineries in that area.
