Illinois
The U.S. Drought Monitor (USDM) is updated each Thursday to show the location and intensity of drought across the country. This map shows drought conditions across Illinois using a five-category system, from Abnormally Dry (D0) conditions to Exceptional Drought (D4). The USDM is a joint effort of the National Drought Mitigation Center, USDA, and NOAA. Learn more.
The following state-specific drought impacts were compiled by the National Drought Mitigation Center. While these impacts are not exhaustive, they can help provide a clearer picture of drought in Illinois.
- Soil moisture declines
- Lawns turn brown
- Row crops and pasture show drought stress
- Fireworks are banned
- Trees show drought stress; wildlife eat more crops
- Row crop and vegetable conditions are poor; hay yield is low; corn is baled for feed; agriculture industry is hurting
- Outdoor burn bans are implemented
- Water levels in wells, ponds, rivers, and lakes are low; streamflow is below average; voluntary water conservation is requested
- Disease kills deer; fish are stressed
- Vegetation is stressed
- Well and reservoir levels are very low
- Feed prices are high; crop loss is widespread; livestock are culled
- Wildlife are severely stressed; fish kills occur in lakes and rivers
- Soil moisture declines; lawns turn brown

Drought in Illinois from 2000–Present
The U.S. Drought Monitor started in 2000. Since 2000, the longest duration of drought (D1–D4) in Illinois lasted 55 weeks beginning on April 6, 2021, and ending on April 19, 2022. The most intense period of drought occurred the week of July 31, 2012, where D4 affected 8.39% of Illinois land.
The U.S. Drought Monitor (2000–present) depicts the location and intensity of drought across the country. Every Thursday, authors from NOAA, USDA, and the National Drought Mitigation Center produce a new map based on their assessments of the best available data and input from local observers. The map uses five categories: Abnormally Dry (D0), showing areas that may be going into or are coming out of drought, and four levels of drought (D1–D4). Learn more.
Drought results from an imbalance between water supply and water demand. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) measures water supply, specifically precipitation. SPI captures how observed precipitation (rain, hail, snow) deviates from the climatological average over a given time period—in this case, over the 9 months leading up to the selected date. Red hues indicate drier conditions, while blue hues indicate wetter conditions. Data are available monthly from 1895–present.
In paleoclimatology, proxy climate data (e.g., tree rings, ocean sediments) can allow us to reconstruct past climate conditions before we had widespread instrumental records. The Living Blended Drought Atlas, shown here, estimates average drought conditions each summer (June–August) as far back as the year 0 by combining tree-ring reconstructions and instrumental records. Red hues indicate drier conditions, while blue hues indicate wetter conditions.
