There were very little changes to the dry conditions in Central Illinois over the past week. Champaign County and two others are now considered "normal" as far as soil moisture goes, but the rest of the area is still waiting for some more moisture. You can get more on the drought categories in our Weather 101 Section.
Looking ahead, the 8 to 14 day forecast is looking to bring us below-normal rainfall amounts, so little help will be available for these dry areas.
Here's a look at how bad the drought was last week.
