MANCHESTER, N.H. —
Low water levels are being seen across New Hampshire as drought conditions continue, with some rivers reaching their lowest levels in decades.
According to the state Department of Environmental Services, New Hampshire went from a historically wet spring to a historically dry summer.
Officials said one gauge on the Ammonoosuc River shows water levels are the lowest they've been in nearly 80 years.
The lack of rain has left most of the state in extreme drought .
"We are at a huge what's called a precipitation deficit. We just haven't had the normal precipitation," said Ted Diers, assistant director of the Water Division for the Department of Environmental Services.
