Current U.S. Drought Monitor Conditions for Washington
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 Washington 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 Washington.
D0 - Abnormally Dry
- Ski season is shortened; visitation is lower
55.0
of WA
(D0–D4)
D1 - Moderate Drought
- Fire danger increases
- Possible dust storms
- River flow is low
1.1
of WA
(D1–D4)
D2 - Severe Drought
- Wheat and corn are stunted; harvest is early
- Producers feed cows earlier; silage is harder to find
- Number of wildfires increases; grasses are brown
0.0
of WA
(D2–D4)
D3 - Extreme Drought
- Crop and hop yields are poor; wheat protein content is higher
- Unprecedented wildfires occur; call is issued for citizen volunteers to fight fires; firefighting funds are running out
- Tourism is reduced, and recreation is altered
0.0
of WA
(D3–D4)
D4 - Exceptional Drought
- Washington has experienced little or no exceptional (D4) drought, so there are no D4-level drought impacts recorded in the Drought Impact Reporter.

Drought in Washington from 2000–Present
The U.S. Drought Monitor started in 2000. Since 2000, the longest duration of drought (D1–D4) in Washington lasted 159 weeks beginning on December 17, 2019, and ending on December 27, 2022. The most intense period of drought occurred the week of August 3, 2021, where D4 affected 38.13% of Washington land.
The U.S. Drought Monitor (USDM) is a national map released every Thursday, showing parts of the U.S. that are in drought. The USDM relies on drought experts to synthesize the best available data and work with local observers to interpret the information. The USDM also incorporates ground truthing and information about how drought is affecting people, via a network of more than 450 observers across the country, including state climatologists, National Weather Service staff, Extension agents, and hydrologists.

The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is an index to characterize meteorological drought on a range of timescales, ranging from 1 to 72 months. The SPI is the number of standard deviations that observed cumulative precipitation deviates from the climatological average. NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information produce the 9-month SPI values below on a monthly basis, going back to 1895. Learn more.

Tree-rings are used to extend the instrumental record of drought to over 2000 years. The Living Blended Drought Product (LBDP) is a recalibrated data series of June-July-August Palmer Modified Drought Index (PMDI) values in the lower 48 U.S. states. This dataset blends tree-ring reconstructions and instrumental data to estimate the average summer PMDI values, which extend over 2000 years in some parts of the U.S. Learn more.
