U.S. Drought Monitor

Mild weather dominated again for the majority of the U.S. this last week. Parts of the Midwest saw rainfall with the passage of a cold front. Most of the Midwest remains drought-free, with the exception of southern Ohio where this is a slight expansion of Abnormally Dry areas. Temperatures ranging from 8 to 16 degrees above normal resulted in expansion of abnormally dry conditions across north central South Dakota and south-central North Dakota.
