Temporary Data Outage
Due to changes in external data sources, the soil temperature data feed and maps on this page are temporarily unavailable. We are working with the High Plains Regional Climate Center and Nebraska Mesonet to resolve the issue, but we do not yet have an estimated date for restoration.
In the meantime, current 4-inch bare-soil temperature data are available directly from the Nebraska Mesonet. This is one of the measurements normally available through CropWatch. Once the data connection is restored, this page will again provide the full set of soil temperature averages and historical comparisons included in CropWatch reports.
We know many Nebraska producers rely on this information and apologize for the inconvenience. We appreciate your patience while the issue is being resolved.
Soil temperatures are taken at 4 inches below the soil surface under bare soil. The locations listed in this table are more specific than the table used prior to March 1, 2017. We have included the former location names (AKA=also known as) for your convenience in locating previous sites.
This report is provided daily by the Nebraska State Climate Office. Visit the NSCO and Nebraska Mesonet websites for more detailed local and state climate data.
