Brownfield’s meteorologist says despite recent rains, there hasn’t been enough moisture to break expanding drought conditions in parts of the Midwest.
“Boy some big expansion through Michigan, down to the Indiana toll road, across north and northwest sections of Ohio.”
Greg Soulje says parts of the Northern Plains have accumulated double digit moisture deficits since the fall.
“Still in that moderate to severe drought category in Minnesota, Iowa, and of course the bullseye—the exceptional drought continues on despite recent rains,” he says.
