The latest Drought Monitor, released this morning, shows that moderate (D1) drought has doubled in size in Georgia from last week’s map due to no rain over the last week. Since the cutoff of this map, we have received 0.5 to 2.0 inches so some of this may be cut back on next week’s map, especially since more rain is expected in the next week. Elsewhere in the region there were only minor changes in the drought status from last week, including Puerto Rico.
