I suppose, just like now, they'd follow every single word and action taken. Let's not forget how late the three states were to declare a state of emergency. In Katrina, it was declared sooner, although many thought it would never be soon enough.
The Coast Guard and other military, plus NOAA were on this from the get go. I assume their interest was heightened because the possibility of outside causes existed? Who knows? I always try to get to the drudgereport so I know what I should be thinking
I did the same during Katrina, and the flooding in the Midwest, the Galveston hurricane, etc.. Definitely a different kind of coverage.
