Drought Monitoring

This page contains links to a number of valuable resources from state and federal organizations and agencies for monitoring drought conditions in Oklahoma and the nation.

As co-authors of the Oklahoma Drought Management Plan, the OWRB has served as chair of the Water Availability and Outlook Committee of the state's Drought Management Team since 1996 and publishes the the state's official drought monitoring publication, the Oklahoma Water Resources Bulletin, to provide current information on reservoir storage, streamflow conditions, weather conditions, and related factors.
