Drought Continues For Some In North Escambia

December 23, 2016

Despite recently rainfall that has greatly reduced the risk of wildfires and returned moisture to the ground, the latest information released Thursday shows that a portion of the North Escambia area is still in a drought.

The update from the National Drought Mitigation Center shows the northernmost part of Escambia County in Florida, roughly from Walnut Hill north, in a moderate drought. The southern half of Escambia County in Alabama is also in a moderate drought, while the northern half of that county is still in a severe drought.

The southern half of Escambia County in Florida remains abnormally dry.

There are only slight chances of rain in our near-term forecast.

    “I don’t believe in global warming
    I believe in GOD doing the warming”

    ^That makes no sense.

    Anyways, this isn’t the first drought this area has ever had. We’ve been keeping records for what, 150 years or so? History goes back a lot farther than that.

    A blind bat could see this is a result of global warming! Do any of you not listen to YOUR government! Believe them OR they will make you!
