10 Short term drought maps for July 31 st on left and August 28 th on right. The monsoon activity in central and southern Arizona has led to removal of Exceptional Drought (D4) along the Maricopa/Gila County border and reduction of Extreme Drought (D3) in central Maricopa and western Pinal and Pima counties. Exceptional Drought (D4) dropped from 10.55% of the state to 8.62%. Extreme Drought has been reduced from 47% to 40%. While monsoon precipitation has benefitted northern and eastern Arizona, the greatest improvement has been in southeastern Arizona which was the big loser during the winter wet season. 10
11 The long-term drought map for August shows hydrologic drought, and this month it is based on precipitation and evaporation using the Standardized Precipitation Evaporative Index (SPEI) over the past 24-, 36-, and 48- months. This depiction is for water resources, not short-term drought (rangeland conditions). Though much of Coconino and northern Mohave County show up as abnormally dry or moderate drought, there are significant water resource issues, such as wells going dry and water hauling. A few small areas in Mohave and southwestern La Paz County show No Drought (white), but this is due to a lack of data around those locations. 11
12 12
13 August August minimum temperatures were 0-2 o F warmer than average across most of the state with a couple of cooler than normal spots in southern Navajo and Apache counties, eastern Gila County, and the Yavapai/Coconino/Gila County borders. Northern Coconino and southern Mohave counties were 2-6 degrees warmer than normal. Daytime temperatures have been 1-4 o F warmer than average across northern and southeastern Arizona. South Central Arizona has been 0-3 o F cooler than average, largely due to storm events. Rainfall has been much greater than average across central Arizona, but less than average in eastern and western Arizona. 13
14 14
15 Calendar Year 2018 Calendar year minimum temperatures across Arizona have been 1 to 3 o F warmer than average, though a few spots have been slightly cooler than average. Daytime temperatures have been 1 to 3 o F warmer than average in southern Arizona and 2-5 o F warmer than average in the northern half of the state. In spite of the wet August in central Arizona, this area, along with northeastern and southwestern Arizona, has received less than 70% of average precipitation. A few spots have received near average or above average precipitation this calendar year. 15
16 16
17 s aham, Cochise, La Paz, OPima and 2018 Water Year Water Year 2018 minimum temperatures have ranged from 1-3 o F warmer than average in central and southern Arizona and Coconino County, while Apache, Navajo, and La Paz counties have had some cooler than average temperatures. Daytime temperatures in the state have been 2 to 6 o F warmer than average mostly due to the lack of cold winter storms. The monsoon rainfall has not yet been enough to make up for the significant deficits left by the dry fall, winter and spring.. Most of the state has still received less than 70% of normal precipitation and many areas have received less than 50%. Only September remains to make up this deficit. 17
