Another wet week allowed conditions to improve across the Northeast. http://www.nrcc.cornell.edu/regional/drought/drought.html

Abundant precipitation allowed moderate drought to ease in portions of southern New Hampshire, southern and western Vermont, and western New York and abnormal dryness to ease in portions of northern Maine, eastern Massachusetts, northern Rhode Island, and northern West Virginia. However, below-normal precipitation led to the introduction of abnormal dryness in eastern Pennsylvania, northwestern New Jersey and southeast New York. http://www.nrcc.cornell.edu/regional/drought/drought.html

While April featured above-normal temperatures, precipitation and snowfall were below normal for many locations: http://www.nrcc.cornell.edu/services//2021/05/02/index.html

Presentation slides and a recording of our April webinar, which featured a review of April conditions and a discussion on Northeast Climate Integrated Modeling to assist with marine resource decision-making, can be found here: http://www.nrcc.cornell.edu/worksh/webinars//04/index.html

While moderate drought eased in small portions of northern and western New York this week, abnormal dryness expanded in southwestern Pennsylvania, northern West Virginia, and western Maryland. http://www.nrcc.cornell.edu/regional/drought/drought.html

Mild temperatures, little snowfall, and variable precipitation were the highlights of November and fall: http://www.nrcc.cornell.edu/services//2020/12/01/index.html
