**Recent U.S. Drought Monitor data valid September 15, 2026, show exceptional (D4) drought covering roughly 1.7–2% of the contiguous United States, concentrated in portions of Colorado (15.2%), Idaho (≈8%), New Mexico (≈8%), Arkansas (≈2%), and smaller areas of Nebraska, Nevada, and Mississippi.** Persistent above-normal temperatures and below-normal precipitation through the record-warm summer of 2026 have sustained or intensified these conditions, with flash drought noted in the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley. The upcoming USDM release (data valid around September 22) will incorporate the latest precipitation, streamflow, and soil-moisture observations; any significant rainfall in the next few days could limit further D4 expansion or produce localized improvements, while continued dryness would likely maintain or slightly enlarge existing D4 footprints in the West and South. El Niño development may influence longer-term patterns but has limited near-term effect on this week’s assessment.

The resolution source for this market is the US Drought Monitor at droughtmonitor.unl.edu.**Recent U.S. Drought Monitor data valid September 15, 2026, show exceptional (D4) drought covering roughly 1.7–2% of the contiguous United States, concentrated in portions of Colorado (15.2%), Idaho (≈8%), New Mexico (≈8%), Arkansas (≈2%), and smaller areas of Nebraska, Nevada, and Mississippi.** Persistent above-normal temperatures and below-normal precipitation through the record-warm summer of 2026 have sustained or intensified these conditions, with flash drought noted in the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley. The upcoming USDM release (data valid around September 22) will incorporate the latest precipitation, streamflow, and soil-moisture observations; any significant rainfall in the next few days could limit further D4 expansion or produce localized improvements, while continued dryness would likely maintain or slightly enlarge existing D4 footprints in the West and South. El Niño development may influence longer-term patterns but has limited near-term effect on this week’s assessment.

The resolution source for this market is the US Drought Monitor at droughtmonitor.unl.edu.**Recent U.S. Drought Monitor data valid September 15, 2026, show exceptional (D4) drought covering roughly 1.7–2% of the contiguous United States, concentrated in portions of Colorado (15.2%), Idaho (≈8%), New Mexico (≈8%), Arkansas (≈2%), and smaller areas of Nebraska, Nevada, and Mississippi.** Persistent above-normal temperatures and below-normal precipitation through the record-warm summer of 2026 have sustained or intensified these conditions, with flash drought noted in the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley. The upcoming USDM release (data valid around September 22) will incorporate the latest precipitation, streamflow, and soil-moisture observations; any significant rainfall in the next few days could limit further D4 expansion or produce localized improvements, while continued dryness would likely maintain or slightly enlarge existing D4 footprints in the West and South. El Niño development may influence longer-term patterns but has limited near-term effect on this week’s assessment.
