Elephant Butte Reservoir, on the Rio Grande in southern New Mexico, began 2023 up from last year. But that's not saying much #nmwater

The November climate outlook favors a warmer and drier than average eastern United States and a cooler and wetter than average northwest. Drought, meanwhile, is favored to expand across the Southeast.
