#Connecticut experiencing #desert-like conditions as #drought gets worse
By Tim McGill, Meteorologist
Nov 14, 2024"One fourth of Connecticut is now in a severe drought, according to a new U.S. Drought Monitor report released Thursday morning. Much of Litchfield County, along with parts of Fairfield and Hartford counties, are now rated level two out of four in drought intensity.
"The rest of Connecticut remains in a moderate drought, level one out of four, as the entire state was one week ago.
"Just over 58% of the Northeast is in at least a moderate drought, an increase of nearly 2% compared to last week. Southern New Jersey moved up to extreme drought level (three of four), while northern New Jersey, parts of eastern Pennsylvania, southeastern New York state including most of the New York City area, and western Massachusetts are in a severe drought."

Ongoing #NH #drought conditions raise #groundwater concerns
Story by Kelly O'Brien
November 7, 2024"With southern #NewHampshire now in moderate to #SevereDrought conditions, officials are growing concerned about groundwater levels in some areas.
"The latest report from the U.S. Drought Monitor shows that southern New Hampshire is in the midst of a moderate drought, while severe drought conditions are being experienced at the coast.
"The state Department of Environmental Services said New Hampshire has been in an extreme precipitation deficit over the past 90 days. Precipitation is down 4 to 6 inches, which is between 30% to 50% of what's expected for this time of year.
"The soil is dry, as are rivers, which has led to a severe drought classification in a small part of the state. There are concerns about groundwater and what going into the spring with a deficit will mean."

A climate-related mass #dieoff leaves over 100 tons of dead #fish collecting at a Greek port
By VAGGELIS KOUSIORAS and DEREK GATOPOULOS
Updated 1:37 AM EDT, August 30, 2024VOLOS, #Greece (AP) — "More than 100 tons of dead fish were collected in and around the port of #Volos in central Greece after a mass die-off linked to extreme weather fluctuations, authorities said Thursday.
"The dead #FreshwaterFish filled the bay 320 kilometers (200 miles) north of #Athens, and nearby rivers. Water levels were swollen by #floods in 2023, followed by months of #SevereDrought.
"The die-off has hit local businesses along the seafront, reducing commercial activity by 80% in the past three days, according to Volos’ Chamber of Commerce.
"Fishing trawlers have been chartered by the regional authorities, along with earthmovers, to scoop the dead fish out of the sea and load them onto trucks bound for an incinerator.
"The fish came from #LakeKarla in central Greece, a body of water drained in the early 1960s and restored in 2018 to combat the effects of drought.
“'There are millions of dead fish all the way from Lake Karla and 20 kilometers (12 miles) eastward,' Anna Maria Papadimitriou, the deputy regional governor of the central #Thessaly area, told state-run television.
"'Right now, there is a huge effort underway to clean up the millions of dead fish that have washed along the shorelines and riverbanks … an effort that involves multiple contractors,' she said.
"Water levels rose abruptly in fall 2023 during a #DeadlyStorm that caused extensive flooding in central Greece, but have since receded due to low rainfall and successive summer #heatwaves ."

Texas River #Floods After Massive Water Level Increase Overnight
by Anna Skinner, October 26, 2023
"A river's water levels in drought-stricken #CentralTexas increased dramatically overnight on Wednesday after #HeavyRains doused the region.
"Texas has suffered from severe drought throughout the summer with the water levels in many lakes, reservoirs, and rivers dropping as a result. As of Thursday, the entirety of #LlanoCounty in central Texas was suffering from #SevereDrought, with nearly 45 percent of the county battling exceptional drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor Map. 'Exceptional' is the worst classification of drought by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
"#LlanoRiver levels have remained low throughout the summer but jumped by 10 feet overnight after heavy rains pummeled the region. Parts of Llano County received at least 7.5 inches of rain through 7 a.m. local time on Thursday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) office in San Antonio and Austin. The rainfall supplemented the Llano River, which entered a moderate flood stage."
