ST. PAUL, MN — For the first time in years, Minnesota is officially drought-free.
The latest U.S. Drought Monitor map released yesterday shows that abnormally dry conditions in northern Minnesota are gone, making the state 100-percent drought-free. Over 99-percent of the state was in some form of drought in mid-March.
The moisture deficit began dropping when the state received more than 12 inches of rain between March and May.
