More than four years after it began, the drought that has played havoc across Oklahoma and Texas is all but over, federal climate scientists said Thursday.
Heavy rains across the southern Great Plains have refilled reservoirs and replenished soil moisture over the past month. With predictions of a wet summer, scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said the drought is likely to continue to retreat in the coming months.
“It’s in its last, dying breath,” said Victor Murphy, climate services program manager for the National Weather Service’s southern region.
