A new U.S. Drought Monitor report shows no part of Iowa remains in extreme drought for the first time in nearly two years as last week and early this week brought significant rainfall. About 37 percent of the state has some drought, down from 97 percent in September, with lingering dryness mainly in the eastern half and about 19 percent in severe drought. Moderate rainfall is forecast statewide in the next seven days, especially in the east and south.
