FEMA Steps In After Missouri Flash Floods | St. Louis News

FEMA is rolling out major aid after President Trump approved a disaster declaration for nine southern Missouri counties hit by catastrophic flash flooding in July — with some areas receiving up to 12.5 inches of rain in under 24 hours. First responders and the National Guard raced to rescue residents, while state officials praised the swift action and thanked the President for federal support as communities face long recovery ahead. This marks Missouri’s third federal disaster declaration this year, following severe storms in April and June.
