(Washington, DC) — Federal disaster aid has been approved in 25 Iowa counties for damage done by severe storms that hit on December 15th. An intense line of rapidly-moving severe thunderstorms passed through the region bringing hurricane-force wind gusts and resulting in 43 confirmed tornadoes. That’s a single-day record for tornadoes in Iowa. The Iowa Congressional delegation had written to President Biden in support of Governor Kim Reynolds’ request for the declaration. Affected counties in northwest Iowa include Buena Vista, Cherokee, Emmet, Palo Alto and Pocahontas.
