Severe (D2) drought conditions expanded across portions of east and northeast Texas through the month of January. This was in response to a prolonged period of dryness which began back in mid summer 2021, coupled with above normal temperatures which persisted through much of the Fall and all of December. Total rainfall amounts generally between 10-12 inches fell across these areas from August through December, which was around 50% or less of normal. Total rainfall in January generally averaged between an inch to two inches across much of east and northeast Texas. This dryness contributed to lower than normal streamflow observed across area creeks, streams, and rivers across the area.

Soils remained dry to very dry. Although some precipitation fell during the month of January, drought conditions continued to worsen. Some winter wheat was irrigated on warm days although farmers struggle to decide what to do to maximize output while limiting input. High fertilizer prices did not make this easy as the drought conditions continued to deteriorate naturally occurring nitrogen in the soil. Ranchers continued supplemental feeding as rangelands remained dormant. On top of the agricultural impacts from extreme to exceptional drought conditions, conditions favorable for wildfires remained a threat to the combined Oklahoma and Texas Panhandles.

Drought in TEXAS, OKLAHOMA
From 01-JAN-22 00:00:00 to 31-JAN-22 23:59:00 (CST-6)
Reported by: Drought Monitor

With an 50-85 day stretch of zero measurable precipitation through November and December, the streak ended with areas receiving a couple hundredths of an inch of liquid. This was what some light snow melted down to on the first of the month. Another snow event brought some very dry snow to the county on the 20th as well. With 1.5 to 2 inches of snow that only melted down to a few hundredths of an inch of liquid, the Extreme Drought (D3) continued to expand east and some Exceptional (D4) drought emerged in western portions of the county.

Drought in BEAVER, OKLAHOMA
From 01-JAN-22 00:00:00 to 31-JAN-22 23:59:00 (CST-6)
Reported by: Drought Monitor

The first measurable precipitation in 57 days fell on the first of the month. However, the measured precipitation was only a few hundredths of an inch of melted snow. This was not enough to keep the county from entirely slipping into extreme drought (D3) by the 4th.   The county spent the rest of the month in extreme drought as the month ended with only a precipitation total of one tenth of an inch of liquid. The county still remained in a 6 to 12 inch deficit over the previous 12 months.

Drought in CIMARRON, OKLAHOMA

With an 80-85 day stretch of zero measurable precipitation through November and December, the streak ended with areas receiving a couple hundredths of an inch of liquid. This was what some light snow melted down to on the first of the month. Another snow event brought some very dry snow to the county on the 20th as well. With 1.5 to 2 inches of snow that only melted down to a few hundredths of an inch of liquid. Given this, D4 Exceptional Drought levels emerged in January for most of the county.
A weak cold front stalled south and east of the Appalachian mountains on the morning of January 6th. This front combined with an upper level trough digging south from the
Great Lakes region to push low pressure from the southern Appalachians into the mid-Atlantic from the afternoon on January 6th into the early morning of the 7th. The track of this low and colder air being drawn south created accumulating snow across the Central Appalachian Mountains.
