event_narrativeAlthough not technically a drought, much of eastern Virginia experienced extremely dry conditions during the month of October. Only .01 of an inch of precipitation fell at Richmond International Airport making it the driest month ever on record. Norfolk International Airport also received only .01 inches of precipitation during the month. This was the driest month ever recorded at Norfolk also. A very wet summer prevented a more hazardous fire situation than would normally be experienced under such dry conditions. However, several small brush fires were reported over the region. Crops also were able to withstand the lack of rainfall due to a very wet summertime.
