W: I think a drought has set in. It hasn’t rained a drop for months.
M: I think so, too, but didn’t it rain last month?
W: It did rain last month, but the rainfall was only half the monthly average.
M: Oh. That’s bad!
W: That’s right. It’s really bad. I’m really concerned though not panicked yet.
M: I don’t blame you. The pastures have browned out even before the summer hasn’t arrived.
W: Yeah, and the soil has been baked so hard that the plow can’t even break the soil.
M: Looks like it’s going to be an ongoing thing that would get worse each day.
W: Yeah. If it doesn’t rain, it’s going to get critical.
