AUSTIN, Texas – As eligible Texas flood survivors start to receive funds from FEMA for rent, home repairs and other categories of assistance, be assured that disaster assistance funds are tax-free.

When you receive your award letter, FEMA will notify you of the appropriate use of disaster assistance funds. FEMA will also remind you to use the money only for disaster-related expenses.

Ten counties are designated for federal assistance for the July 2-18 severe storms and flooding in Central Texas: Burnet, Guadalupe, Kerr, Kimble, McCulloch, Menard, San Saba, Tom Green, Travis and Williamson.

If you applied and were approved for FEMA assistance, you will receive a check. You may also receive a direct deposit payment, if you chose to have the money deposited into your bank account. Your award letter will arrive within a day or two after that digital payment or check.

Disaster assistance can include grants for hotel stays or other temporary housing and for basic repairs for flood damage to your home. The money can also be used to help you repair or replace appliances, room furnishings, and a personal or family computer damaged by the disaster.

Disaster grants are not for regular living expenses such as utilities, food, travel, entertainment, or any discretionary expenses not directly related to the disaster.

If you spend the grants on anything other than their intended purpose, you may be denied future

Geoscience Australia (GeoAu) reported a magnitude 3.5 quake in Australia near Kingscote, Kangaroo Island, South Australia, only 13 minutes ago. The earthquake hit after midnight on Wednesday, August 13th, 2025, at 12:32 am local time at a shallow depth of 6.2 miles. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 3.6. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 3.6.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Stokes Bay (pop. 54) located 4 miles from the epicenter, and Cassini (pop. 78) 4 miles away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Seddon (pop. 99) located 11 miles from the epicenter, Wisanger (pop. 110) 13 miles away, Kingscote (pop. 1,800) 23 miles away, and American River (pop. 260) 31 miles away.
