The precipitation departure also shows a typical weak La Nina pattern with a lot of rain over the Ohio River Valley as well as in northern AL and GA and drier than normal conditions in the southern part of our region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-temp-dep-to-date.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-temp-dep-to-date-1024x791.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28516\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-temp-dep-to-date-1024x791.png 1024w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-temp-dep-to-date-300x232.png 300w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-temp-dep-to-date-768x593.png 768w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-temp-dep-to-date-1536x1187.png 1536w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-temp-dep-to-date-2048x1583.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-precip-dep-to-date.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-precip-dep-to-date-1024x791.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-precip-dep-to-date-1024x791.png 1024w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-precip-dep-to-date-300x232.png 300w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-precip-dep-to-date-768x593.png 768w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-precip-dep-to-date-1536x1187.png 1536w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2025\/02\/feb-25-precip-dep-to-date-2048x1583.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since it is halfway through the month, here is a quick look at the climate so far this month.
