on the same trip i saw this. it was kinda hard to gauge but it looked like most of the corn crop in KS and MO was pretty much toast.

the scale is the palmer drought severity index relative to the 1950-1979 mean. so red/purple/white is much dryer than 1950-1979 and blue is much wetter. i dont have a map from this year for that dataset but the paper (2010) included a 2000-2009 map generated from the same models. because of the way the data's standardised i can't easily compare measurements from this year to model predictions to see "where we are" so to speak but its not a bad idea to figure out what the absolute values are that the model scale refers to for that purpose, i'll give that a shot at some point
pretty much the driest we got in NA from 2000-2009 is -4, by 2040 the models are saying we're seeing areas of -20 lol

yeah unfortunately "it stops raining" is sth that has happened pretty regularly haha. dryland farming is useful for certain applications but as a staple-crop production method its terrible as you're pretty much fucked if you dont get your median rainfall for that year
