Yes, I saw that too on the NBC Nightly News. Good press for amateur radio!

Amateur Radio ARES/RACES was on the NBC Network News last night in response to subject flooding. Video clip showed hams using 2 meter radios. 
The ARRL yesterday reported that these hams were also using approved drones equipped with Amateur Television for air to ground transmissions to allow Incident Command personnel to view affected areas.
