Flash Droughts in the Mountain West: Emerging Risks under a Warmer Climate Flash droughts have been much in the news recently. The fl ash drought event in the Northern Great Plains in 2017 received especially widespread news coverage due to its severe impacts on agriculture and livestock—the economic losses of which led NOAA to categorize it as a billion-dollar weather and climate disaster (NOAA Climate.gov 2018). Another billion-dollar disaster that year resulted from wildfi res in the Mountain West, which we show here, were also driven by rapidly evolving dry conditions from anomalously wet antecedent conditions.
