The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency personnel are on the scene in Kentucky working with state and local officials to determine the extent of damage from storms that began on May 26th. These systems have produced winds, heavy rainfall, tornadoes, mudslides, hail, flash floods and flooding across a wide area of the state. Currently, five teams made up of specialists from FEMA Region IV, the Kentucky Division of Emergency Management, and local emergency management officials are conducting preliminary damage assessments (PDA)--looking at the amount of private and public damage caused by the storms. The PDAs help determine the type and amount, if any, of federal disaster aid needed.
