As of the 13 October 2026 U.S. Drought Monitor map, 51.9% of Wisconsin was in drought (D1 or worse), with 22.0% in extreme or exceptional drought (D3–D4). 1 of 1 tracked reservoir sites sit inside the drought area, 1 of them in severe drought (D2) or worse.

The Drought Monitor maps where conditions are dry this week — rainfall, soil moisture, streamflow — not how much water is stored. Reservoir storage lags it by months, so a region can be in drought with full reservoirs, or out of drought with empty ones. Source: droughtmonitor.unl.edu. The U.S. Drought Monitor is jointly produced by the National Drought Mitigation Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, the United States Department of Agriculture, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Reservoirs

Sorted by capacity

Storage from official US gauges (USGS, USACE, Bureau of Reclamation, CDEC) and, in Texas, the Texas Water Development Board. Fill % uses design capacity from the National Inventory of Dams where available; Water Data for Texas lakes use that board's conservation capacity; a few sites without a match fall back to the 5-year maximum. D0–D4 is the U.S. Drought Monitor category of the ground at the reservoir’s coordinates on the latest weekly map — local conditions, not storage.

Eau Galle Dam — data sourcing in progress

Storage is monitored by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE CWMS), but the live feed is currently stale — we are working to restore it. Known capacities: Eau Galle Dam (0.0 km³).
