Wednesday, September 6th was the first day in what seemed like a long, long time, that rain fell across most of Indiana.
We were on a good stretch where consistent and sometimes too much rainfall eliminated drought throughout Indiana.
Have you ever heard of the song by Glenn Frey, “The Heat Is On”? No pun intended, but the heat is certainly on!
Over the last 30 days (July 18-August 15), the state average temperature was 73.5◦F, which was essentially normal.
Drought and abnormally dry conditions continue to improve across most of Indiana (Figure 1).
Recent precipitation events have allowed periodic rainfall to hit most places across Indiana.
As the dog days of summer continue in folklore through August 11, the temperatures and humidity have increased to heat advisory status throughout the weekly outlook.
After another week of decent rains across the state (Figure 1), abnormally dry and drought conditions continue to improve according to the latest U.S. Drought Monitor (Figure 2).
Timely rains have returned over the past few weeks and have helped crop conditions across the state.
