Drought in Cross, Arkansas

Drought June 1, 2026 – June 30, 2026 · Cross, Arkansas

What the National Weather Service wrote

Existing D2 Severe Drought and D1 Moderate Drought conditions improved to D1, D0 Abnormally Dry, and Dnada (no drought) conditions across the county.

The wider storm

June represented a month of limited drought improvement rather than drought elimination across northeast Arkansas. Beneficial rainfall provided some short-term relief and prevented further widespread deterioration, but the region remained entrenched in Exceptional Drought (D4) in its hardest-hit areas for nearly the entire month. Substantial and sustained rainfall would be needed to address the long-term precipitation deficits.
