Several storm systems brought generally light precipitation to eastern Oklahoma during early to mid January 2013. Toward month's end, a strong storm system moved across the region producing one half to more than three inches of rain as widespread showers and thunderstorms tracked across the area. As a result of this rain event on the 29th, portions of northeastern Oklahoma ended up receiving near normal to well above normal monthly precipitation while much of southeastern Oklahoma received well below normal precipitation. Due to the persistent dry pattern the area had experienced for much of 2012, the rainfall during January 2013 generally resulted in only a very slight improvement in the overall drought conditions over eastern Oklahoma. Much of the region remained in extreme drought (D3) conditions during the month while Osage, Pawnee, Washington, Creek, and Nowata Counties remained in exceptional drought (D4) conditions. Monetary damage estimates resulting from the drought were not available.
