Where can I find information on historical and extreme conditions for the parameter indicators sites?
For historic and extreme precipitation and Palmer Index information go to the following National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) web sites: Precipitation information from the National Climatic Data Center: http://lwf.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/ncdc.html Palmer Index information from the Climate Prediction Center: http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/cdus/palmer_drought/ B) For streamflow and groundwater level historic and extreme conditions do the following: When viewing a particular streamflow or groundwater station duration graph, click on “Link to Real – Time Graph”. There you’ll see a scroll-down menu titled “Available data for this site” Use that menu to select general site information, statistics, historic data and more. If information or data you require is not available at this site, contact our Information Specialist. Our Specialist’s contact information is available at bottom of this FAQ list.
