Did anyone get FEMA help for Kona low?
If you have not applied and were affected you can still apply for assistance until June 14, 2026. I am on Oahu, and our house got pretty bad damage ($150k+) from the Kona low. Even if your damage was minor and you only spent money on a dehumidifier, chain saw to clear tree debris, small repairs or lost food because your electricity went out you could get money. We have home insurance, but what a joke, they only gave us $3k so we applied for FEMA and within a few days received two payment amounts, one for $790 and another for $2800 and one more pending (all labeled miscellaneous).
I am curious if anyone got specific home repair assistance and what the max amount was?
