Earlier today on another DU thread, we saw that FEMA is already there.
FEMA
@fema
#Ian Update: The vehicles & warehouses pictured are full of life-saving & life-sustaining resources. We have over 4.5M liters of water & 4M meals ready in Alabama & Florida with more en route. Thousands of staff, search & rescue & medical teams, are in the area ready to respond.

Also, the DU thread included:
José Andrés
@chefjoseandres
And @WCKitchen
is in place to join effort to help with food+water. Already 2 main WCK kitchens in Tampa and Gainesville plus food trucks+restaurant partners ready to make as many meals as necessary during the next days and weeks! People of Florida you will not face this alone!

No doubt, DeSantis will try to take credit for all of it but it is us--the US Government--that is on the ground to help.
