Oklahoma has recently received some drought relief from rain events a few weeks ago, but parts of the state still suffer from drought. Radio Oklahoma’s Dale Forbis provides details.

State Climatologist, Gary McManus said significant rainfall in late April and early May was a big contributor to drought relief in the state.

“Those rains that we had later in April and in through May have alleviated drought conditions some, especially up in the Oklahoma Panhandle,” McManus said.

Some drier areas throughout Oklahoma are still in need of more moisture.
