WARNING NOW: WV LEADING NATIONS DROUGHT, CALHOUN HIT HARDEST IN STATE - High Forest Fire Risk Coming

(08/26/2024)

August 2024 West Virginia is currently leading the nation with drought, and Calhoun and a few regional counties are leading the state with the lack of rainfall. The last drought in the region was in 1999. Worse yet, no rain and temperatures in the 90s. A foreboding for an early fall leaf fall followed by a super high risk of forest fires. A warning to residents against outside burning NOW, with few volunteer firemen able to face an onslaught. Most rural streams are not flowing, the West Fork has a tiny trickle.
