City of Sioux Falls Launches Storm Recovery Website
The City of Sioux Falls has created an online resource for residents impacted by Thursday's (May 12) devastating storms.
SiouxFalls.org/Storm has information on debris cleanup, power outages, and tips for dealing with the aftermath of the storms, which saw the city deal with widespread destruction in the wake of wind gusts approaching 80 miles per hour.
