Some 75% of the state is now considered to be having a a moderate to severe drought - and 40% of the state is considered to be having a severe drought. The rest of the state is considered "abnormally dry," except for Nantucket, which remains OK. On Jan. 1, none of the state was in severe drought.

The National Weather Service says we could get some heavy rain Friday, mostly south of the turnpike.
