The 1988–1990 North American drought ranks among the worst episodes of drought in the United States. This multi-year drought began in most areas in 1988 and continued into 1989 and 1990 (in certain areas). The drought caused $60 billion in damage ($137 billion 2022 USD) in United States dollars, adjusting for inflation). The drought occasioned some of the worst blowing-dust events since 1977 or the 1930s in many locations in the Midwestern United States, including a protracted dust storm, which closed schools in South Dakota in late February 1988. During the spring, several weather stations set records for the lowest monthly total precipitation and the longest interval between measurable precipitation, for example, 55 days in a row without precipitation in Milwaukee. During the summer, two

  • La sequía de 1988-1989 en América del Norte se encuentra entre los peores episodios de sequía en los Estados Unidos. Esta sequía de varios años comenzó en la mayoría de las áreas en 1988 y continuó en 1989 y 1990 (en ciertas áreas). La sequía causó daños por $ 60 mil millones ($ 131 mil millones en 2021 USD) en dólares estadounidenses, ajustados por inflación). La sequía ocasionó algunos de los peores eventos de polvo soplado desde 1977 o la década de 1930 en muchos lugares del medio oeste de los Estados Unidos, incluida una tormenta de polvo prolongada, que cerró las escuelas en Dakota del Sur a fines de febrero de 1988. Durante la primavera, varias estaciones meteorológicas establecieron récords para la precipitación total mensual más baja y el intervalo más largo entre las precipitacion (es)
  • La sécheresse nord-américaine de 1988 à 1990 se classe parmi les pires épisodes de sécheresse aux États-Unis. S'étendant sur plusieurs années, elle a débuté dans la plupart des régions en 1988 et s'est poursuivie dans certaines jusqu'en 1990. La sécheresse a causé des pertes de 60 milliards $US (130 milliards $US en tenant compte de l'inflation). Elle a occasionné certains des pires tempêtes de poussière depuis 1977 ou les années 1930 dans de nombreux endroits du Midwest des États-Unis, y compris une tempête de poussière prolongée, qui a fermé des écoles dans le Dakota du Sud à la fin de février 1988.

  • La siccità nordamericana del 1988-1990 è stata uno dei peggiori episodi di siccità negli Stati Uniti d'America. Si è trattato di un periodo di prolungata mancanza di pioggia che ha colpito diverse zone del Canada e degli Stati Uniti a partire dalla primavera del 1988 e che si è conclusa solo fra il 1989 e il 1990 a seconda delle zone. I danni causati dalla siccità sono stati di quasi 60 miliardi di dollari sia negli Stati Uniti che in Canada. Ciò equivale a una cifra compresa tra 134 e 137 miliardi di dollari in dollari americani del 2022. (it)
