Abnormally Dry Areas Expand

By Pam Knox
 
The latest Drought Monitor, released this morning, show that abnormally dry (D0) conditions have expanded in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina in the past week. This was expected due to the lack of big rain-makers and is likely to continue to expand over the next few weeks under our current La Nina conditions. Rain amounts over the next week should continue to be dry, with only a few isolated areas expected to get more than half an inch. Puerto Rico’s abnormally dry area did not change from last week to this week.
