NEW MEXICO'S DROUGHT ISN'T GETTING ANY BETTER…IN FACT, IT'S GETTING WORSE. THE LATEST DROUGHT MAP PUT TOGETHER BY FEDERAL FORECASTERS SHOWS NEARLY 40 PERCENT OF NEW MEXICO IS GRAPPLING WITH EXCEPTIONAL DROUGHT, COMPARED TO ABOUT 25 PERCENT LAST WEEK.
NEW MEXICO'S DROUGHT IS STILL THE WORST IN THE NATION. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN ALBUQUERQUE SAYS GETTING ENOUGH CONSISTENT RAIN TO BREAK THE DRY SPELL IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY.
