(Indianapolis, IN) — Gov. Mike Braun is asking the federal government for emergency assistance as Indiana continues recovering from severe storms and historic flooding.

Braun on Friday requested a Presidential Emergency Declaration through FEMA, which would bring additional federal resources to Indiana following severe weather that began impacting the state Monday.

The governor’s office said Indiana has experienced historic flooding, tornado activity and a derecho. Braun previously declared a statewide disaster emergency and deployed the Indiana National Guard.

“I will do everything in my power to protect Hoosier lives and livelihoods as we respond to this historic severe weather,” Braun said. “Now, I am requesting immediate federal assistance to strengthen those efforts and provide direct assistance to impacted communities.”

The requested federal assistance would help cover emergency response costs, including swift-water rescues, power restoration and other immediate needs.

State officials said the storms have caused deaths and injuries, damaged homes, businesses and infrastructure, displaced families and disrupted emergency services and communications.

Power outages peaked at more than 300,000 customers statewide, according to the governor’s office. Flooding reached 100-year levels in some locations and forced road closures while damaging other roads.

State agencies and the Indiana National Guard remain mobilized as local communities continue response and recovery efforts.

Indiana 211 has been activated for residents reporting property damage in several counties, including Dearborn and Franklin counties. Residents can call 211 or 866-211-9966 to report storm damage.

Officials say residents should call 911 in an emergency. Road conditions are available at 511in.org, while statewide travel advisories are available through the Indiana Travel Advisory Map.
