The wider storm

March 2026 brought significant drought relief to northeast Mississippi. Frequent rainfall and improving hydrologic conditions led to widespread recovery from the drought conditions that developed during late 2025. South and western portions of north Mississippi were not as fortunate as D2 Severe Drought persisted over much of the area. Localized worsening conditions led to D3 Extreme Drought and D4 Exceptional Drought conditions to persist throughout the month.
