March was a dry month, leading to widespread drought expansion across the US with some small areas of improvement in the Midwest and Northeast. Drought covers 59.91% of the continental US, a jump of 3.7 points from last week. Drought has intensified significantly in parts of the Great Plains and West in recent weeks. #drought #USDM #USDroughtMonitor https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap.aspx
