Abnormally dry (D0) conditions cover areas\nnorth through Bloomington, and also south to Taylorville and Tuscola.\n\n* D2 (Severe): No counties remain in D2 drought.\n\n* D1 (Moderate): Cass, Champaign, De Witt, Logan, Macon, Menard,\n  Morgan, Piatt, Sangamon, Scott, and Vermilion Counties.\n\n* D0 (Abnormally Dry): Christian, Douglas, Marshall, Mason, McLean,\n  Tazewell, and Woodford Counties.\n\n.Precipitation: During the period from January 26 to February 2,\nprecipitation of over 1.5 inches was common south of I-72. Areas\nnorth of I-72 over to Danville generally saw around an inch of\nprecipitation. Much of this fell during the last couple days of\nJanuary.\n\n.Temperature: During the same period, temperatures generally averaged\nclose to normal. The coldest weather was on January 28, when some\nareas fell well into the single digits in the wake of snow that fell\nthe day before.\n\n.Hydrologic Conditions: Streamflow was near normal across much of\ncentral Illinois today, though areas of below normal streamflow\nlinger in the upper reaches of the Sangamon River basin, and other\nportions of east central Illinois.\n\nLake levels as of Friday morning:\n\nLake Springfield..... 557.93 feet (normal: 558.07)\nLake Decatur......... 611.50 feet (normal: 612-613)\n\n.SUMMARY OF IMPACTS:\n\n.Hydrologic Impacts: Water levels on Lake Decatur have stabilized\nrecently, and have risen 0.7 feet since the January 28th drought\nsummary.\n\n.DROUGHT MITIGATION ACTIONS: The city of Decatur and village of\nMount Zion continue to call for voluntary water conservation\nmeasures until further notice. A drop in Lake Decatur water level to\nbelow 610.7 feet would trigger additional restrictions.\n\n.LOCAL DROUGHT OUTLOOK: An extremely cold weather pattern is on tap\nfor the upcoming week, with highs 25 to 30 degrees below normal for\nthis time of year. A series of storm systems are expected to produce\nsnowfall at times, though liquid equivalent of the snow is not\nexpected to be especially high.\n\nThe 8 to 14 day outlook for February 13-19 favors below normal\ntemperatures, and below normal precipitation. The longer range\noutlook for February 20 through March 5 favors temperatures getting\ncloser to climatological normals, with no clear trend on\nprecipitation.\n\n.NEXT ISSUANCE DATE...\nThe next issuance will be on Thursday, February 18.\n\n.RELATED WEBSITES...\n\nLocal Weather, Water, and Climate Information...\nCentral Illinois NWS Office......https:\/\/weather.gov\/ilx\n\nAdditional River and Climate Information...\nU.S. Geological Survey...........https:\/\/water.usgs.gov\/\n\nRock Island Corps of Engineers...https:\/\/www.mvr.usace.army.mil\/\nSt. Louis Corps of Engineers.....https:\/\/www.mvs.usace.army.mil\/\nLouisville Corps of Engineers....https:\/\/www.lrl.usace.army.mil\/\n\nIllinois State Climatologist.........\nhttps:\/\/stateclimatologist.web.illinois.edu\n\nClimate Prediction Center........https:\/\/www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov\/\n\nU.S. Drought Monitor.............https:\/\/www.droughtmonitor.unl.edu\/\nU.S. Drought Portal..............https:\/\/www.drought.gov\/\nU.S. Drought Impact Reporter....\nhttps:\/\/www.droughtreporter.unl.edu\/\n\n.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS...\n\nThe U.S. Drought Monitor is a multi-agency effort involving NOAA`s\nNational Weather Service and National Centers for Environmental\nInformation, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, state and regional\nclimatologists, and the National Drought Mitigation Center.\nInformation for this statement has been gathered from NWS and FAA\nobservation sites, cooperative extension services, the U.S.\nArmy Corps of Engineers, and the U.S. Geological Survey.\n\n.CONTACT INFORMATION...\n\nIf you have questions or comments about this statement, please\ncontact:\n\nNational Weather Service\n1362 State Route 10\nLincoln, IL 62656\nPhone: 217-732-3089\nE-mail: nws.lincoln@noaa.gov\n\n$$\n\nGeelhart","68":"No drought statement available for this WFO.","70":"No drought statement available for this WFO.","92":"No drought statement available for this WFO."}}
