SRWMD Hydrologic Conditions Report for June

is now available

LIVE OAK, FLA., JULY 9, 2025 – To help enhance public awareness of water levels and the impact rainfall has on current conditions in North Florida, the Suwannee River Water Management District (District) has released its Hydrologic Conditions Report for the month of June.  

This monthly report highlights rainfall, surface water and groundwater levels, a climate and drought outlook, as well as other scientific data that can be utilized to help educate the public about the impact rainfall has on North Florida.  

Notable highlights from the month of June include:  

• The District received an average rainfall of 5.46 inches, which was approximately 19 percent lower than the 1932-2024 average of 6.76 inches. Despite a lower-than-average rainfall amount, the Districtwide rainfall deficit improved to 0.96 inches, an improvement from the 3.33-inch deficit seen at the end of May.
• Most counties in the District received between 3 inches and 7 inches of rain, though parts of Dixie, Gilchrist, Lafayette, Levy, Taylor, and Union counties received more than 9 inches of rainfall.
• Many of the river gages in the District finished the month in the normal (25^th to 75^th percentile) flow range. However, the Graham and Fort White gages on the Santa Fe, along with the St. Mary’s gage near Macclenny, saw flow ranges in the below normal (10^th to 25^th percentile) and the Worthington Springs gage on the Santa Fe River finished the month in the extremely low (less than 10 percentile) range. 
• Upper Floridan Aquifer levels across the District reflected low (less than 10^th percentile) to extremely high (above 90^th percentile) levels for the month and ended June with an average around the 44^th percentile.  
• The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) three-month seasonal outlook suggests above normal temperatures along with above normal precipitation throughout the District from July to September 2025. 
• The U.S. Drought Monitor report released on June 26 shows parts of Alachua, Bradford, and Levy counties with Abnormally Dry conditions. 

The full report can be found on the District’s website under the Science & Data tab. It is typically updated the second week of each month, and reports from the previous five years are available for viewing.
