SALT LAKE CITY The percentage of Utah inside the U.S. Drought Monitor s exceptional category fell for the first time in months as monsoonal rains poured over southern Utah.
While that s good news, nearly the entire state still finds itself in extreme drought status despite precipitation totals severe enough to cause flooding.
About 52% of the state remains in the Drought Monitor s exceptional category, according to its report Thursday. That s compared to 70% last week and 57% three months ago. A little more than 98% remains in at least extreme drought status down from 99% last week and the remaining portion of the state remains in at least a severe drought, according to the agency.
