The Governor declared a state of emergency for the hard hit areas on Saturday. He also mobilized the Missouri National Guard to assist emergency efforts. This federal disaster declaration includes Barry, Barton, Callaway, Camden, Christian, Cole, Crawford, Dade, Dallas, Dent, Franklin, Gasconade, Greene, Hickory, Jasper, Laclede, Lawrence, Lincoln, Maries, McDonald, Miller, Montgomery, Newton, Osage, Phelps, Polk, Pulaski, St. Charles, St. Clair, St. Louis, Stone, Warren, Webster and Wright Counties and the City of St. Louis for debris removal and emergency protective measures, including direct federal assistance, under the Public Assistance program.
