FEMA Launches Data Visualization Tool

I think this is a new tool from FEMA, at least it is called a beta version. Check out Data Visualization and click on your state to get the stats on the number of disasters by type with a color coded by county count. There is also the total of grant funds by year by type.   

Click on New York or California if you want to see where the dollars are really going.
