I missed it.
I have been writing about it for over two years ago, but it happened while I was away on vacation. The drought in my part of the world is over.
In Georgia residents can resume unlimited outdoor water use on the odd/even address schedule, a first since June 2006. In South Carolina, the S.C. Drought Response Committee lifted the remaining drought declarations which is also a first since August 2006.
Only one full year, 2005, in the past 12 years has South Carolina been "drought free". Will we be drought free next year? I doubt it.
Here is a slideshow of drought monitor images in June for the last nine years.

If the drought is over, the end of the recession must be close, too!(pool cleaners, landscapers, car washers, fountain technicians, waterslide operators, fake-pond constructors, get back to work!)
