Since today is the last day of the month, the summary maps are not quite complete but still show how much warmer and drier than normal most of the Southeast was this month. Note that there were parts of the region that received less than 5 percent of the normal precipitation. No wonder the drought expanded so much this month! Southern Florida was the only significant part of the region that had above-normal rainfall due to a storm that formed off the East Coast and brought rain to that area.
