| Episode Narrative |
The severe drought conditions that developed across parts of southeast Minnesota in October 2011 continued through January for Dodge and Mower Counties. |
| Event Narrative |
Between three quarters of an inch and an inch of precipitation fell across Mower County during January. This was not enough to alleviate the severe drought conditions that developed during November 2011. Low fire danger conditions exist, however, burning permits were required where ever there was less than 3 inches of snow around the burn area. |
