Recent rainfall in DC area just a drop in the bucket, but Hurricane Debby will help

Many people in the D.C. area were ecstatic to see downpours this past weekend following a very dry summer start but we have more hills to climb to eradicate our drought. Baltimore-Washington International Airport topped the list with an excess of 3 inches of rain this weekend. Pockets from D.C. to the Allegheny Highlands got the short end of the stick with a half-inch of rain or less. While the grass in spots will green up, keep in mind this drought is far from finished.
