#Drought improved since October but remains across 40% of the Midwest. Below-normal precip led to worsening drought conditions in some areas over the past 2 months, including portions of Lower MI, northern IN, southern KY and southern IL. Learn more: drought.gov/drought-status…

Great line-up for the Conference on Hydrology at #AMS2025. Come see me in session 13C on Thursday where we'll be talking about....you guessed it, #drought!

We are getting excited about the great line-up for the Hydrology Town Hall next week at #AMS2025! 💧 Come see us Tuesday at 12:15 (Room 341) where we will be talking with researchers and NOLA experts about urban infrastructure and resilience under increasing hydro extremes ⛈.

Make sure to save the AMS Hydrology Town Hall on your schedule for #AMS2025! This Tuesday (Jan 14) at 12:15p in room 341. We'll be discussing urban infrastructure, community #resilience, and increasing hydrometeorological extremes from the researcher and community perspectives.

Join us TODAY for the Hydrology Town Hall at #AMS2025! We will be talking with local experts and researchers about urban infrastructure, community resilience, and increasing hydrometeorological extremes. TODAY at 12:15pm in Room 341.

Spotlight on the Midwest, where there is little drought. But a pattern change is in the works. The next couple weeks look warm/dry. As there are still long-term precip deficits in parts, drought may develop and expand if wetness doesn't return soon. drought.gov NOAA

May Drought Outlook by NOAA’s NWS Climate Prediction Center. Major improvements in the S. Plains, Northeast, and HI. A bit of NV and Mid-Atlantic too. Drought is expected to develop in parts of the Upper Midwest, SD, and Southeast. Otherwise, drought persists. drought.gov/forecasts National Weather Service
