Federal disaster declarations that list Owen County
Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, Flooding, Landslides, And Mudslides (FEMA DR-4864, severe storm) was declared on April 24, 2025, and FEMA lists Owen County among the designated areas. The record gives incident dates of April 2, 2025 to May 16, 2025. Storm damage often takes out power and roofs before it takes out equipment, and a commercial kitchen without power could cook from a mobile commercial kitchen trailer rental with its own range, griddle, and ovens. Add a dishwashing trailer rental for the dish room, and a refrigerated trailer rental if the walk-in fails. Facilities near New Castle face the same weather.
