The NOAA said this spring's drought represents the largest the country has seen since 2013.
Based on short and long-range statistical and dynamic forecasts between March 17 and June 30, the agency forecasts below-normal precipitation in portions of the Central Great Basin, Southwest, Central and Southern Rockies and Central and Southern Great Plains, eastward to the Central Gulf Coast.
Dry conditions combined with the forecasted above-normal temperatures for more than half of the country this spring will allow drought conditions to continue.
