Iowa Sees More and Less Drought

DES MOINES, Iowa -- Iowa's new drought picture is a bit of a mixed bag.

This week's US Drought Monitor Map from the University of Nebraska's National Drought Mitigation Center shows more moderate drought in Western and Northwest Iowa, while a section of Southern Iowa is drought-free.

The map shows another week of ongoing moderate drought in Northeast Iowa.

Much of the state saw rainfall last week--some areas getting two inches or more.

Right now 94 percent of Iowa is under drought or near-drought.
