Attached is the latest NWS Drought Information Statement. 2025 monsoon season finished near normal for most of southern New Mexico with drier conditions along the AZ/NM state line. However, all of Grant County remains in either a severe or extreme drought status. Unfortunately, the majority of November looks dry for New Mexico. With that in mind the NWS is warning of an elevated fire danger this month due to prolonged dryness and ERCs above normal for November.
