Residents are asked to call the county's storm line at 302-856-7366. Most people are reporting flood damage, along with wind damage and debris on their property. The data will be turned into the Delaware Emergency Management Agency, which will determine whether there is enough damage to get a declaration from the federal government to be eligible for disaster assistance.
