KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Three Kansas City metro counties are among those that could receive federal assistance following severe storms and flooding earlier this summer.

Other counties included in the request are: Andrew, Audrain, Boone, Buchanan, Callaway, Carroll, Chariton, Cooper, Daviess, Grundy, Holt, Howard, Lincoln, Livingston, Moniteau, Montgomery, Ralls, and Saline.
