The federal government has expanded is disaster declaration following damaging storms in southwestern New Hampshire this summer.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency originally declared a disaster related to storms during the last few days of July. Governor Chris Sununu said Tuesday that the agency has extended the declaration to include August 1 and August 2.
The state Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management had appealed the federal initial original decision. A preliminary damage assessment found that statewide response efforts totaled $3.2 million.
