Summarization
The U.S. and Puerto Rico are currently in a state of drought, with 34.5% of the population effected and 74.3 million people affected. This week's U.S. Drought Monitor showed slight improvement, with pockets of weather degradation in Colorado and Oregon. There has been minor geographic expansion of snow drought over the past month, and abnormal dryness levels have been monitored. Many places have burn bans and reduced water usage due to dry conditions. Long-term planning is important for drought prevention.
Topic Modeling
