Maine’s Drought Is Back and Worse | Portland Maine News

Published 2 days, 23 hours ago
Description

Maine’s drought is creeping back, with moderate conditions now gripping the coast from York to Hancock County and abnormally dry spells inland in Washington County—undoing earlier progress. July’s lack of rain, especially along the coast, and missed storms in southern areas have left the state parched. Even when it rains, heavy downpours just run off instead of soaking in, while groundwater levels remain critically low. Without sustained, light rainfall over months, the state’s drought cycle will keep returning—and wells could soon face new struggles.
