UNDATED (AP) — Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds is asking the federal government for nearly $4 billion to help recover from the unusual wind storm that struck the state on Monday killing at least three people in the state, leaving thousands without power and extensively damaging crops. Reynolds says she’s filing an expedited presidential major disaster declaration for $3.99 billion. In a statement released Sunday Reynolds says early damages assessments indicate more than 8,200 homes were destroyed or have major damage and 13 million acres of corn has been lost, about a third of the state’s crop land. Costs include $3.78 billion in agriculture losses, $100 million for private utilities, $82 million for homes and $45 million for public assistance.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa authorities reported 573 additional coronavirus cases and two more deaths linked to the virus Sunday. The state said there had been 52,221 virus cases and 975 deaths linked to COVID-19 as of 10 a.m. Sunday, according to Iowa’s online virus tracker. The number of infections is believed to be far higher because many people have not been tested, and experts believe people can have the virus without feeling sick. The seven-day rolling average of daily new cases in Iowa has risen over the past two weeks from 472.14 new cases per day on Aug. 1 to 501.43 new cases per day on Aug. 15.
