AP Article Clips:

"The drought parching the Northeast, already one of the worst in decades,
continues to lower groundwater levels, damage crops and force states to
increase water restrictions. And experts say the end is nowhere in sight.

About 40 percent of the nation is in a severe drought, said Mark Svoboda a
climatologist with the National Drought Mitigation Center at the University
of Nebraska. Usually only about 10 percent of the nation is in a state of
drought.

Nationally, Svoboda said, this is probably the third worst drought in
history after the droughts in the 1930s and 1950s."
