Nebraska Tornadoes: FEMA starts canvassing hardest hit areas
ELKHORN, Neb. (WOWT) – There’s no shortage of damage, debris, or uncertainty in the Elkhorn neighborhood of Ramblewood.
“All of us homeowners are like where to start, what can I get, who can help me?” said Zoe Sorando.
From the sidewalk, Sorando’s home may look like it’s all there, but the inside maps a much more challenging path for her and her family. She’s had inspectors, engineers, and electricians come and go.
“They are trying to help, but having a lot of people you don’t understand what they are doing, it is overwhelming,” she said.
Thankfully, she says, these two women with FEMA took the time to help her understand their purpose.
“For them coming house to house and offering the services, it is like very helpful,” said Sorando.
FEMA teams are speaking with homeowners and renters, encouraging them to apply with them or online. The federal agency often provides money for needs not covered by insurance, like home repairs or paying for a place to live.
“We’re working with every household on a case-by-case basis,” said John Mills, a FEMA spokesperson. “We want to hear from people about what their needs are and make you eligible for as much as we possibly can.”
They’re also leaving flyers. For Sorando, this response helps calm the chaos she’s experiencing now: “I’m looking forward to follow up and see what else they can do for me.”
She made it through 2017′s deadly hurricane while living in Puerto Rico. Now she can add 2024′s tornado outbreak to this list.
“I was a survivor of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. And FEMA is not…I mean they’re not out there like this,” said Sorando.
With FEMA’s arrival, it warns residents about potential fraud. They said “FEMA employees do not ask for money – or accept money – from disaster survivors. FEMA staff never charge applicants for disaster assistance, inspections or help with registration.”

LINCOLN, NE — Ole Miss baseball will have to wait until May 31 to finish its second game of the Lincoln Regional.
The game between Ole Miss (37-20) and Nebraska (43-15) will resume May 31 at noon. TV information has not been announced. The game went in a weather delay at 10:20 p.m. before the ninth inning on May 30 because of rain and lightning.
No. 2 Rebels are leading No. 1 Nebraska 6-3. It’s a winner’s bracket game in the Lincoln Regional at Haymarket Park.
Ole Miss has taken control of the game after entering the sixth inning down 1-0. Starting pitcher Taylor Rabe pitched six innings and gave up one run.
Owen Paino had a two-run double in a three-run sixth for the Rebels. Ole Miss scored two runs on bases-loaded walks in the seventh.
The other two games on May 31 remain in their originally scheduled timeslots. If Ole Miss wins, the Rebels will face the winner of Nebraska and Arizona State on May 31 at 7 p.m. The Cornhuskers and Sun Devils play an elimination game at 2 p.m. to get to the night game.
If Ole Miss wins that game, the Rebels will move on to a super regional against the winner of the Auburn Regional. If Ole Miss loses, the Rebels will play in an if-necessary game against the same team on June 1 to decide who wins the regional.
