Persistent high pressure and above-normal temperatures have driven recent degradation to exceptional (D4) drought across portions of Colorado, Nebraska, and adjacent High Plains states, where soil moisture deficits and low streamflows persist according to the U.S. Drought Monitor valid August 25, 2026. Monsoonal rainfall has eased conditions in parts of the Southwest, while D3-D4 areas expanded slightly in the Pacific Northwest and northern Rockies. With the week of September 1 falling near the next USDM release (typically Thursday), traders monitor short-term precipitation forecasts and any late-August heat waves that could lock in D4 classifications. The Climate Prediction Center’s seasonal outlook highlights continued persistence risks in the northern Plains amid strong El Niño influences.

Each USDM release covers the seven-day period ending Tuesday at 8:00 AM ET and is published the following Thursday.
Resolution is based on the first published US Drought Monitor release for the listed week. Subsequent revisions will not be considered; the first published release is final.
