If you are looking for maps on conditions relating to current drought, precipitation, soil moisture, agriculture or water supply, a great place to start is the “Data, Maps and Tools” page of the Drought Portal at https://www.drought.gov/drought/data-maps-tools. It  has an amazing array of maps and tools that are well-organized into different categories that can be accessed using the menu on top. Even though I’ve used it before, I am still amazed at the variety of items here! For example, here is a forecast for the predicted soil moisture anomaly for the next week showing a trend to drier conditions in the Florida peninsula.
