We're still in an extreme drought, air quality easing

According to the N.C. Drought Monitor, we're still in an extreme drought. This classification includes Cleveland and surrounding counties. We're not in the worst classification, which is exceptional drought. On a brighter note, the code orange days in air quality appear to be behind us for a little while. We're now forecast to be in a code yellow, although frankly, I can't tell the difference.

Here's a link the the drought determinations:
