The Historic City News reported that despite the drenching of 9-12 inches of rain in St. Johns County brought forth by tropical Storm Fay, the area is recovering.

According to the Historic City News,

"St. Johns County staff, including Emergency Management, Parks & Recreation, Engineering, Risk Management and the Property Appraiser’s Office worked closely with FEMA Damage Assessment Teams on Monday to survey the impact from Tropical Storm Fay. The time required to complete these assessments is increased because of the continued growth in many previously rural parts of the county. The FEMA Teams will submit their findings to their regional office for review. St. Johns County will be notified upon completion of the review whether the County meets the threshold for federal assistance."

Tropical Storm Fay caused over one million dollars in damage to residential structures and businesses.
