About this year

FEMA declarations in 2019

In 2019, FEMA issued 1,535 county-level disaster declarations across 37 states and 1,211 counties. The most frequent declaration type was flood. Combined tracked FEMA obligations for the year total $2.3B.

The states most affected in 2019 were North Carolina (149 declarations), Kansas (117), and South Dakota (111). Beyond flood, the year also saw significant severe storm activity.

Year pages aggregate county-level declarations by calendar year. A single weather event — a hurricane season, a drought — can generate hundreds of county declarations across multiple states. The county pages linked from the timeline above show the per-county detail: aid breakdown, program authorizations, and how each event fits into the county's longer disaster history.
