(KLZA)-- Governor Jim Pillen has issued a disaster declaration for 23 counties resulting from storms that impacted the state earlier this month.
Thunderstorms from Aug. 8-11 resulted in exceptionally high winds and heavy rain and caused significant damage to public property and infrastructure.
The Governor's declaration includes Pawnee, Nemaha, Johnson and Gage and Otoe counties in extreme southeast Nebraska.
Estimated damage currently exceeds $24 million. As a result, state funds can be directed to assist those areas as necessary.
