2020 has been a dry and unusually warm year in Nebraska. At the latest meeting of the state’s Climate Assessment Response Committee, state climatologists said it seems likely those conditions will mostly continue into the new year.
Over the past 6 months, drought across the state surged. Data from the U.S. Drought Monitor, housed at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, shows 56% of the state was experiencing mild to severe drought in July. That number has since jumped to 94%, with the state’s less dry zones largely in the sandhills.
