Re: florida

Actually it is objective, and monitored very closely by CPC. A portion of the central part of the FL peninsula is only at the first of five succeedingly more severe drought conditions: D0, Abnormally dry. A portion of the panhandle next to AL is at D1, Moderate.

However SE LA and the MS coastline are at D3, Extreme. This is a much more devastating and serious level of drought.
