October has started where September left off with warm daytime temperatures and next to no rainfall. The featured chart presents a number of precipitation metrics over trailing period of days. The x-axis value on each chart represents the period from that given date till 7 October. The present US Drought Monitor analysis for the location is just D0, but a number of short term indicators are now pointing to a worse drought designation. The very wet start to the growing season is still buoying the metrics over the 3-6 month time range and keeping the present situation from being a complete drought disaster. The question at hand though is when is it going to start raining again, which seems to be at least one week out or more at this point.
