The Water and Atmospheric Resources Monitoring Program (WARM) coordinates data collection activities of several monitoring
efforts conducted by the Illinois State Water Survey, measuring the water and atmospheric resources of Illinois. The program includes
various statewide observation networks on Illinois climate, surface water, groundwater, in-stream sediment, and soil moisture
conditions. From the menu, choose to read more about WARM, browse the various data networks, review current weather and agricultural
information, download a copy of the Illinois Water and Climate Summary (IWCS), or access the WARM database.
The soil moisture report for July 1 is posted. The next report is scheduled for August 3, 2010.
Daily data are posted through May 25, 2010. Data are arranged in ~1989-2009 and 2010 pages.
Seasonal target levels printed in Table 5 in recent issues of the Illinois Water and Climate Summary for some lakes were incorrect. The summer target elevations listed above apply at the following lakes as of these dates: Springfield (effective April 1, March-May issues); Decatur, Shelbyville, Carlyle (effective May 1, April-May issues). Difference-from-target levels reported in Table 5 at these lakes, however, were relative to the correct seasonal elevations.
