A. drought

Explanation:

Drought is a natural phenomenon that does not have a rigorous and universal definition. It can be understood as a deficiency in precipitation (rain) over an extended period of time, resulting in water scarcity with significant negative repercussions on ecosystems and socioeconomic activities. The concept depends on the climatic and hydrological characteristics of the region covered and the type of impacts produced.

If the average annual rainfall for the state of Boston is 43.76 inches and a weather station has measured a city's actual rainfall by 33.45 inches, it means the city is below the average annual rainfall, indicating that it is experiencing a drought.
