Kentucky Drought Declarations Removed

Recent rainfall has eased drought concerns

By John Mura/Robin Hartman

Frankfort, KY - The Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet and the Office of the State Climatologist, in coordination with the Kentucky Drought Mitigation Team, have removed drought declarations for all 120 counties in the Commonwealth. Recent rains have eliminated precipitation deficits and improved stream flows and soil moisture levels.

Precipitation events since Oct. 3, when the statewide Level 1 and Level 2 drought declarations were issued, have helped ease the moderate to severe drought conditions.

"Following the rapid intensification of drought through September and the first week of October, weather patterns have shifted dramatically," said Dr. Stuart Foster, state climatologist for Kentucky. "The month of October finished as the third wettest on record, easing concerns about drought as winter approaches."
