Drought conditions worsened in Alabama in the past week. That’s according to the latest report from the U.S. Drought Monitor.
But there’s a catch: The report was compiled before much of the state got much-needed rainfall on Wednesday and Thursday.
The Drought Monitor releases a report on drought conditions nationwide each week. The reports are compiled on Tuesdays and released on Thursdays.
That means that this week’s report was done before much of the state received rain on Wednesday into Thursday. That rainfall will be reflected in next week’s report.
