Drought duration can vary significantly depending on geographic location, climate conditions, and the severity of the drought. Generally, short-term droughts may last a few weeks to a couple of months, while moderate to severe droughts can persist for several months to years. In some cases, particularly in arid regions, droughts can last for decades. The specific duration is influenced by factors such as precipitation patterns, temperature, and land management practices.
