So how long will this drought last?
The Lawrenceville Weather Blog often has some great posts, and their latest titled “How Long Could the Southeast Drought Last?” is no exception.
They go into great detail to explain how the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) trends affect our weather. It’s quite an interesting read.
If you want me to cut to the chase, their data shows that we may be 1/3 of the way through a 20-year dry spell. Ouch! However, it’s more complicated than that and you should really read the whole post if you have a chance.
