Drought conditions improving across Central Texas

Recent rains are producing positive changes with our area drought.

AUSTIN, Texas — In the midst of the back-to-back cold snaps in Central Texas, and the light to moderate rainfall over the past few weeks, there is a bit of good news to share. 

In the month of October, there was more than four inches of rainfall accumulated at Austin Camp Mabry, specifically 4.19 inches. This brought in a surplus of 0.31 inches. So far, in November, there has been just under a half inch of rain, 0.46 inches.

As a result, conditions have gone from Severe and Extreme, to Dry and Moderate for the majority of Central Texas. Portions of Mason, Llano, Burnet and Hays counties continue to have Severe drought but nowhere near to the extent that was being experienced in early to mid-October.

Over the next few days, enjoy a modest warm up of temperatures with just a couple chances for rainfall late next week. This is consistent with a two-week outlook of precipitation for the Lone Star state.
