Rescue workers responding to a surge of damaging spring tornadoes from Michigan to Illinois this March have complained that they are unable to access a vital storm-tracking tool previously provided by FEMA, according to a report.
The federal disaster response agency, which answers to the Department of Homeland Security under the outgoing Secretary Kristi Noem, supplied the mapping tool to help state and local officials track tornado paths and determine where its responders might be best positioned to aid stricken communities.
