Five Regions of New York State on Drought Watch List

NYSDEC recently expanded its Drought Watch to the Southern Tier drought region, which is comprised of Cattaraugus, Allegany, Steuben, and Chemung counties. A Drought Watch issued in July for the Long Island, Upper Hudson/Mohawk, Adirondacks, and Great Lakes/St. Lawrence drought regions remains in place. A map showing current drought conditions is found at: https://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/5017.html  A watch is the first of four levels of state drought advisories.
