According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, the severity of the drought ranged from exceptional across parts of the Northwest Hill Country to extreme drought conditions across much of the the eastern Concho Valley, southern Heartland and eastern portions of the Northern Edwards Plateau.  Severe drought conditions were reported across the remainder of the region.  Most of the dry land wheat crop has failed.  Many ranchers continued to supplement feed for their livestock.  For the month of March, Abilene received 1.42 inches, San Angelo received 1.73 inches, and Junction received 3.42 inches to help bring a little relief but not enough to break the drought.
