One Million Residents Face Drought In State

The latest Rhode Island Drought Monitor Report is out, and it shows that most of the state is dealing with some kind of drought.

The report shows the Westerly area as “abnormally dry.”

But the rest of the state is dealing with a moderate drought.

In fact - specifically 93 percent of the state about a million people are dealing with it.
