According to the U.S. Drought Monitor's High Plains Drought Summary exceptional drought (D4) was added to southeast and central Mesa County, and Delta County in western Colorado. Record low snowpack this winter and near-record high evaporative demand this summer have led to

rapidly depleting water supplies.
