Local and state officials continue the work of assessing the damage caused by Hurricane Isaias. The spread-out nature of the damage and widespread blocked roads due to downed trees has made these assessments a painstaking process, but emergency managers are working around the clock to compile an accurate assessment.

These damage assessments are the key factor in determining whether the state will qualify for FEMA assistance. Our teams are working to put Alabama in the best possible position to qualify for this assistance.

The FEMA process takes considerable time, but there is help available to Alabama now through dialing 2-1-1. If you aren’t able to get a call out, text your ZIP code to 898-211.
