The Water Supply Outlook is a monthly report that looks at the overall drought conditions in the Potomac River basin. It is typically only published during the drier season between April and October. However, due to persistent dry conditions, staff in ICPRB’s Section for Cooperative Water Supply Operations on the Potomac (CO-OP) have published additional reports in November and December. While recent rainfall has temporarily relieved dry conditions, it has not been enough to overcome the deficits observed in soil moisture, streamflow, and groundwater levels.
