The latest Drought Monitor, released this morning, shows a significant decrease in drought over the last week, with many areas in southern Alabama and Georgia and Florida changing to a less severe category, and some drought disappearing. Severe drought remains in southern Florida but has been eliminated elsewhere. Note that this map only includes rain through Tuesday, and the rain we had with the mid-week system should continue to improve conditions in next week’s map, even with little or no rain for the next seven days.
