Iowa — Iowans impacted by the tornadoes, storms, and flooding that led to three federal disaster declarations have gotten millions of dollars in FEMA funding. FEMA Spokesman John Mills says they’ve helped some six thousand people already.
Mills says there have been other payouts as well.
Mills says they encourage anyone who hasn’t visited a FEMA disaster center to stop by.
The time to get help from those centers for the earliest disasters is winding down this week.
This applies to residents of Adair, Adams, Cedar, Clarke, Harrison, Jasper, Mills, Montgomery, Polk, Pottawattamie, Ringgold, Shelby, Story and Union counties. Mills says it has been a rough year for Iowa.
Mills says his Midwest crews have been very busy.
