Drought Expected to Continue Through Winter Months in SE Kansas

 

The extended drought is expected to continue during the winter months for a majority of the Central and Southwestern U.S.

 

For the third consecutive winter, warmer-than-average temperatures are expected along the Gulf Coast and Southern portions of the county, according to the Climate Prediction Center, a division of the National Weather Service.

 

Montgomery County continues to be classified as a D3 drought, which indicates low river levels, stressed trees, and poor pasture and crop conditions. Much of the surrounding area is in the most severe category, the D4 drought.

 

The state of Kansas continues to have the largest percent area of any state in the D4 drought tier, with 34.7% of the state suffering from exceptional drought.
