The 2011 Drought in Illinois
Dr. Jim Angel, State Climatologist
After a wet spring and early summer, Illinois experienced much-below average rainfall across the center of the state in July and August. Coupled with above-average temperatures, this resulted in a rapidly developed agricultural drought. In fact, such a short, fast drought is called a "flash drought" (the equivalent of a flash flood but on the dry end of the scale).
This page includes both the current situation and conditions through the growing season. This includes monthly precipitation totals for 2011 for NWS Cooperative Observer sites across Illinois.
Current Conditions
I maintain a separate web page that post maps and tables on current conditions in Illinois, regardless of whether we are in drought or not. That web page is Current Conditions. For more general information on drought in Illinois go to my Drought in Illinois page. The Water Survey also maintains a web page on drought that includes information on the current drought and the activities of the state Drought Response Task Force.
Below is the current U.S. Drought Monitor map for Illinois, click to enlarge.
Monthly Precipitation Totals by Location in Illinois
Data are updated after the end of the month and currently available through August. Much of this data is provisional and may change as more sites report in coming months. Long-term average or normals for many of these sites can be found at my Illinois Normals page. You can get reports of monthly precipitation totals from the CoCoRaHS web site for a large number of sites in Illinois. Their web site is slow at time so it works best to ask for one county at a time rather than the default "all counties".
This list contains two lines per site. The first line are the precipitation totals. The second line are the number of missing days for each month. In some cases, sites may make preliminary reports only on the days that it rained.
