Droughts in the United States is similar to drought around other parts of the world.
Below-normal precipitation leads to drought.
That's caused by an above average persistence of high pressure over a dry area.
Drought in the United States occurs during climate cycles, such as the North Atlantic oscillation, Atlantic multidecadal oscillation and the El Niño-Southern Oscillation.
These determine what areas are more likely to have development of drought and when drought develops.
Droughts are periodic.
They alternate with floods over a series of years.
The worst droughts in U.S. history happened in the 1930s and 1950s.
The U.S. drought in the 1930s was called the Dust Bowl.
The 1936 North American heat wave was part of the Dust Bowl.
The costliest drought in United States history was the 1988-90 drought.
The drought caused just over $60 billion in damage.
During the drought, there were also heat waves that took the lives of 4,800-17,000 people in the U.S. This drought was also the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history before Hurricane Katrina.
Droughts can affect anywhere within the United States.

Unbinilium is a hypothetical (theoretical or imagined) element of the periodic table.
It is also known as eka- radium.
Its atomic number should be 120 and is has the symbol Ubn.
The name Unbinilium and the symbol Ubn are temporary IUPAC names (meaning "one-two-zero-ium" in Latin).
This name and symbol exists until a permanent name is decided and the element is discovered.
It is expected to be a s-block element and an alkaline earth metal.
It is the second element in the eighth period of the periodic table.
This element has not been synthesized (obtained or discovered) yet.
A German team at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research attempted a research on 2011.
It suggested a possible production of  299Ubn.
But it couldn't be done.
Attempts were planned by the Russian, Japanese, and French teams.
Attempts were made in 2017-2020 and the experiments from the attempts showed that 8th period elements were difficult to synthesize.
Unbinilium is expected to be the last element that can be synthesized through current technology.
As of 2022, it has yet to be created and currently has no uses.

Woodstock '99 was the second music festival (after Woodstock '94) that tried to copy the feel of the original Woodstock festival.
It was held between July 22 and 25, 1999, in Rome, New York, 200 miles (320 kilometres) from the original event.
Unlike the original Woodstock and Woodstock '94, this had several problems that became more famous than the actual event.
Firstly, it was very hot in the area, often reaching 100 °F (38 °C) and the area, an old air base, had no trees to keep people cool.
Secondly, people were not allowed to bring their own food and drink into the festival, and they had to buy from food sellers in the festival, which was very expensive, costing $12 for a single slice of pizza, and a 590ml bottole of water cost $4.
Thirdly, there was a very small amount of toilets for all the people, and within a short time, they were broken.
The festival also had a big violence problem, including the audience tearing plywood from the walls during the performance of the Limp Bizkit song “Break Stuff”.
On one occasion, a group handed out candles for a candlelight vigil, but the audience instead used them as a bonfire, throwing water bottles at it to burn longer.
