| episode_narrative | A very dry spring and summer caused major crop failures and some wells to run dry. Many streams and rivers were also brought to their lowest recorded levels. The crops most affected were corn and hay, which dealt a major blow to dairy farmers. According to preliminary figures from the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets, the worst drought damage was reported in Cayuga ($17.7 million), Steuben ($15.3 million) and Madison ($5.9 million) counties. September rains from the remnants of Hurricanes Dennis and Floyd helped to ease the summertime drought conditions although they came too late to help the vegetable and grain crops. |
