I need a clarification of whether Sally was declared a qualified Federal disaster or a major disaster in Lower Alabama.  There were a number of significant losses and I am trying to do Casualty Losses for a lot of folks who take the standard deduction.

The FEMA website is not real helpful in understanding the differences. Can anyone lead me to some good information.

Thanks

Alabama Hurricane Sally (EM-3545-AL)

Incident Period: September 14, 2020 - September 16, 2020
Declaration Date: September 14, 2020

"President Donald Trump on Sunday declared a major disaster in three Alabama counties battered by Hurricane Sally.

Storm surge and torrential rains swamped Mobile and Baldwin counties on either side of Mobile Bay when slow-moving Sally made landfall Wednesday on Alabama’s Gulf Coast. Escambia County, an inland community that borders the Florida Panhandle, also suffered significant flooding."
