It has been a very long and hard summer for the southern Plains as Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas have been under either an extreme or exceptional drought.
Over this past weekend storms moved through parts of Oklahoma and Texas putting a very small 'dent' in the drought. And you can see this reflected by this week's drought monitor which was just released yesterday. While it's not much, there was a slight improvement. Flash Flood Watches had actually been issued for northern Texas as the rain came down. Unfortunately, it will take years for that area to recover from what has happened this year! I really hope this upcoming winter brings something for the south!
