BALTIMORE — It keeps getting better and better. Every week we get an update on the drought conditions in Maryland. Here is the latest:
WMAR
The light yellow is considered D0 or abnormally dry. It is not necessarily a drought, but those areas could use rain. The brown color that is mainly in southern Maryland is D1or moderate drought. Roughly 27% of the state is abnormally dry and just under 8% is in Moderate drought.
To compare this to last week 48.5% of the state was under no dry our drought conditions. this week it is nearly 65%. That is a big improvement.
There are rain chances back for the weekend, so that could help improve this map even more.
