WA State dangerously close to drought conditions, says U.S. Drought Monitor

NOW PLAYING ABOVE

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released its monthly reports — raising drought concerns in Washington.

As Washington enters spring, the state is dangerously close to drought conditions due to the lack of snow in the cascades and throughout eastern Washington.

As the state inch closer to Summer, the U.S. Drought Monitor shows much of the Cascades and central Washington in the “abnormally dry” category.
