Incredible! Thank you Josh for posting this, I was aware of the ongoing drought in Northern/Northeast Wisconsin, but I had no idea that it was this bad!
ReplyDeleteTim, my pleasure. The drought down here isn't as noticeable and the dataset astounded me as well. Going on seven years up north with 80% of average, that is certainly dry and when you see the numbers of what they're lacking the drought is put into better perspective.
ReplyDeleteInteresting stats. Sounds like some locations here in the west and northwest. I don't have data at my fingertips though I would suggest that we look something like what you provided via the NWS.
ReplyDeleteAlso, your blog look has changed and it is very nice.
Bob, the recent rains upnorth may have given some tiny relief. I am glad you like the look. I hope they have a seasonal scape so I can edit with the seasons.
