Retrieve the Drought Severity and Coverage Index (DSCI) for the US from the USDA/NOAA US Drought Monitor. DSCI is a single composite score per week ranging from 0 (no drought anywhere) to 500 (100% of the area in D4 Exceptional Drought), calculated as the weighted sum D0%×1 + D1%×2 + D2%×3 + D3%×4 + D4%×5. Returns DSCI values for both CONUS and the total US (including Alaska/Hawaii/territories) with a descriptive severity classification (none/low/moderate/severe/extreme/exceptional). Useful for tracking drought trends over time, comparing drought years, and integrating a single drought severity metric into dashboards or alerts.
