Abnormally dry conditions decrease in AL, GA

By Pam Knox

The latest Drought Monitor, released earlier this week, shows that there was a significant decrease in abnormally dry (D0) in southeast Alabama, with a smaller decrease in the area in Georgia due to rain. Rain since the last map should further reduce the area of D0 in the next map. You can view the DM every week at https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/, with new maps coming out each Thursday morning.
