episode_narrativeAfter two months with almost no rain in much of Arkansas, drought conditions worsened...especially in eastern sections of the state. In Little Rock, for example, only .67 inches of rain was measured in July and August combined...and was accompanied by the hottest month on record in August. A severe thunderstorm brought some rain to the Little Rock area on September 1st ending 27 straight days with no precipitation (a record). On September 8th, the Governor of Arkansas asked that all 75 counties in Arkansas be declared agricultural disaster areas. With foliage drying, grass fires became numerous. A 1200 acre fire spread through the Petit Jean State Park in Conway County in early September, with several forested areas completely burned.
