New Mexico is experiencing its highest drought levels in the month of May since 2013. More than 77% of the state was in extreme and exceptional drought – the two worst categories – last week. And that’s down from the beginning of the month. Only about 4% of the state was this drought stricken at this time last year. KUNM’s Nash Jones spoke with Julie Anne Overton, Public Affairs Officer for the Santa Fe National Forest, about what this looks like on ground, and how you can prepare to get outdoors safely this summer.
JULIE ANNE OVERTON: Conditions across New Mexico are pretty dire in terms of the drought. And I know that for this wildfire season, which is upon us – June is usually our worst month – the fire personnel on my forests are extremely concerned about drought conditions.
