NOAA released a story about their latest monthly climate outlook earlier this week. You can read it at https://climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/august-2021-us-climate-outlook-rains-continue-across-southeast. Sadly, it does not look like much relief for the drought-stricken farmers in the west. That also means with the pattern locked in place, the Southeast is likely to continue to see wetter than normal conditions. The cloud cover associated with the rain will also keep our temperatures relatively cool and solar radiation down.
