Just wondering what y'all think about the growing rainfall deficit in the southeast. I know April is normally Raleigh's driest month, but i think this entire year has been slightly below normal. Any predictions/expectations/commentary would be helpful! Thanks. BTW, we are almost 5" below normal for the year in raleigh.

hmmm but he's saying we'll get into one if we don't see tropical moisture. But this isn't tropical season and we are already behind. what do y'all think?

Drought Monitor shows portions of SC and a large portion of GA are in Moderate Drought now with surrounding areas as Abnormally Dry. Patches
of Abnormally Dry conditions are also found in AL and MS.

If this Mid Summer like pattern doesn't change soon, the Midwest could have a bit of a drought as well
