Several rainfall events during April 2013, combined with rainfall from previous months, helped to alleviate short-term drought conditions across much of eastern Oklahoma. Rainfall that fell during the month ranged from about 3 inches to as much as 10 inches across portions of the region. The lightest amounts generally occurred across far northeastern Oklahoma while the heaviest fell across east-central and southeast Oklahoma. As a result of this month's rainfall, drought conditions had improved from extreme (D3) to severe (D2) across Washington, Nowata, Craig, Pawnee, Tulsa, Rogers, and Creek Counties.  Portions of Osage County remained in extreme drought (D3) during the month. Monetary damage estimates as a result of the drought were not available.
