Welcome to the tag category page for Wet!
Dry conditions are characterized by a lack of precipitation over an extended period of time, resulting in drought. Drought can have significant social, environmental, and economic impacts, including slowing the growth of crops and pastures, causing water shortages, and damaging ecosystems. Drier-than-normal conditions can lead to a decline in streamflows, decreased water levels in lakes and reservoirs, and an increase in the depth to water in wells. Drought is a natural part of climate variability and can last for varying lengths of time. It is important to understand and respond to dry conditions to mitigate the negative effects on communities, agriculture, and the environment.
