NWS Drought Information Statements; 20230901 to 20251231 (NCEI Accession 0293388)
National Weather Service (NWS) Drought Information Statements are produced by NWS Weather Forecast Offices to describe conditions associated with drought in their area. They provide up-to-date reports on the current drought situation for the Weather Forecast Offices' county warning and forecast area. These statements summarize recent weather and hydrologic conditions, discuss local drought impacts, and provide a local drought outlook. The statements are available on drought.gov and are archived as a collection of statements provided by all WFO's that issued Drought Information Statements during the past year. In the first year of the program the production of statements began after September 1, 2023.
