Drought in Stephens, Georgia

Drought April 1, 2017 – April 30, 2017 · Stephens, Georgia

The wider storm

The effects of the drought continued across the northeast Georgia mountains and foothills into April. However, the month proved to be a very active one for passing storm systems, and monthly precipitation ended up being well above normal. This added to the several-month trend of improving rainfall conditions, and the approximately year-long severe/extreme drought conditions were pretty much over by the end of April.
