The latest Drought Monitor, released today, shows that abnormally dry (D0) conditions decreased in Alabama, but a small area of D0 edged into SW Georgia along the border with Alabama. Most of the dry areas should receive an inch or more of rain in the next five days, which could lead to reductions on next week’s map. Above normal temperatures over the next few weeks, coupled with normal or below normal rainfall, could lead to some stress on dryland crops over the next month.
