Sherburne County Multi -Hazard Mitigation Plan, 2020 <br />4.1.5 National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) Records <br />Historical storm event data was compiled from the National Centers for Environmental Information <br />(NCEI). NCEI records are estimates of damage reported to the National Weather Service (NWS) from <br />various local, state, and federal sources. However, these estimates are often preliminary in nature and <br />may not match the final assessment of economic and property losses related to given weather events. <br />The NCEI data included 377 reported events in Sherburne County between 195o and July 2019. <br />However, some weather event categories only had available data going back as recent as 3.996. No <br />records before 3.950 were available. A summary table of events related to each hazard type is included <br />in the hazard profile sections that follow. A full table listing all events, including additional details, is <br />included in Appendix C. NCEI hazard categories used in this plan are listed in Table 3.3. <br />Table 13.

FEMA Disaster Declarations by County <br />Another historical perspective is derived from FEMA- <br />declared disasters. Six major disaster and two emergency <br />declarations in Sherburne County have been made <br />between 1957 and June 2019 (Figure 6). <br />Table 14 and Table 3.5 show the details of the disasters <br />including payments for Public Assistance (PA) and <br />Individual Assistance (IA), listed underthe flooding and <br />severe storm profiles. No declarations were made for the <br />other storms listed in the NCEI database. Reviewing the <br />federal payments for damages from the declared <br />disasters is a way of correlating the impact from the NCEI <br />report. <br />Page139 <br />
