PORTLAND (WGME) – Some people may be loving our recent weather, but while they're soaking up the sun, others are probably wish their wells and farms were soaking up some rain.
The U.S. Drought Monitor was updated Thursday. Hydrologists analyze multiple factors to assess our status. Rainfall deficits, stream flow, and rainfall deficits all get taken into account when determining drought conditions.
Moderate drought conditions have been expanded down through coastal Maine into York County, while abnormally dry conditions expanded to nearly cover the entire state.
