A video showing a quick overview of current and historical drought information for the Boundary region can be found on the BIWS facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/BoundaryIntegratedWatershed/videos/276160777004147/.

Below is a download for the slides from the video presentation.

Understanding temperature and precipitation are the driving factors in whether or not our region experiences a drought, which is well illustrated when comparing the drought levels in 2016 (a cooler and wetter summer) to those from 2017 (hotter and drier summer). Below is four slides from the presentation showing the historical drought levels, temperature and precipitation for each year.
