Drought conditions now encompass all of northeast Georgia

By Ken Stanford Contributing Editor
From well south of Athens to the North Carolina and Tennessee state lines, drought conditions now cover all of northeast Georgia.

That's according to the latest report from the U.S. Drought Monitor, which was released Thursday.

The area is considered "abnormally dry," the least severe of the categories used by the agency in describing the intensity of the dry weather. The affected area has increased significantly since AccessWDUN last checked on the status in Georgia earlier this month.

Parts of metro Atlanta, northwest Georgia and southeast Georgia are also considered "abnormally dry."
