For the first time in almost two years, no part of Nebraska is languishing under extreme or exceptional drought. This according to federal officials, who released the latest map from the U.S. drought monitor on Thursday. The news reportedly comes as parts of eastern and south-central Nebraska continue to struggle with severe drought. However, for the first time since late March 2022, no areas within the Cornhusker State are currently listed in the extreme or exceptional category. State officials say that’s very good news for farmers and ranchers.
