March was another dry month across South Central Texas. Most of the region received less than normal rainfall with most of the southern and western areas getting less than 25 percent of normal. In addition to the dry month, March ended a dry six month period from October 2012 through March 2013. These six months ranked in the ten driest October to March periods at Del Rio, Austin Camp Mabry, and Austin Bergstrom International Airport. As a result, the drought worsened in 13 counties and only Atascosa and Frio Counties remained in better than severe category (D2) drought. Maverick County moved into the exceptional category (Stage D4), Bastrop, Caldwell, Dimmit, Fayette, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Williamson, and Zavala to extreme (D3), and Bexar, Lavaca, Medina, and Wilson to severe (D2). Edwards, Kinney and Val Verde remained in exceptional, Hays, Kerr, and Real in extreme, and Bandera, Blanco, Burnet, Comal, De Witt, Gillespie, Karnes, and Kendall in severe. Fire danger at the end of the month was low to moderate due to rain toward the end of March. Of the counties in D2 or worse drought, 14 had outdoor burn bans if effect at the end of the month. These were Bexar, Dimmit, Edwards, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Kendall, Kinney, Maverick, Medina, Travis, Uvalde, Val Verde, and Wilson. The Texas Crop and Weather Report issued by Texas A and M Agricultural indicated soil moisture was a problem in dry land corn, sorghum, and cotton. Area lakes and reservoirs continued below normal pool elevations with Lake Amistad around 52 feet below normal, Lake Travis 50 feet below normal, and Medina Lake nearly 80 feet below normal which left it at 6.5 percent of capacity. The Edwards Aquifer was 19.9 feet below normal, and 4.7 feet below the level at the end of March 2012. San Marcos moved to stage 2 water restrictions. Uvalde was in stage 3 water restrictions, Austin, the San Antonio Water System, and the Barton Springs Edwards Aquifer Conservation District were in stage 2, and Kerrville was in stage 1 restrictions.

March was another dry month across South Central Texas. Most of the region received less than normal rainfall with most of the southern and western areas getting less than 25 percent of normal. In addition to the dry month, March ended a dry six month period from October 2012 through March 2013. These six months ranked in the ten driest October to March periods at Del Rio, Austin Camp Mabry, and Austin Bergstrom International Airport. As a result, the drought worsened in 13 counties and only Atascosa and Frio Counties remained in better than severe category (D2) drought. Maverick County moved into the exceptional category (Stage D4), Bastrop, Caldwell, Dimmit, Fayette, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Williamson, and Zavala to extreme (D3), and Bexar, Lavaca, Medina, and Wilson to severe (D2). Edwards, Kinney and Val Verde remained in exceptional, Hays, Kerr, and Real in extreme, and Bandera, Blanco, Burnet, Comal, De Witt, Gillespie, Karnes, and Kendall in severe. Fire danger at the end of the month was low to moderate due to rain toward the end of March. Of the counties in D2 or worse drought 14 had outdoor burn bans if effect at the end of the month. These were Bexar, Dimmit, Edwards, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Kendall, Kinney, Maverick, Medina, Travis, Uvalde, Val Verde, and Wilson. The Texas Crop and Weather Report issued by Texas A and M Agricultural indicated soil moisture was a problem in dry land corn, sorghum, and cotton. Area lakes and reservoirs continued below normal pool elevations with Lake Amistad around 52 feet below normal, Lake Travis 50 feet below normal, and Medina Lake nearly 80 feet below normal which left it at 6.5 percent of capacity. The Edwards Aquifer was 19.9 feet below normal, and 4.7 feet below the level at the end of March 2012. San Marcos moved to stage 2 water restrictions. Uvalde was in stage 3 water restrictions, Austin, the San Antonio Water System, and the Barton Springs Edwards Aquifer Conservation District were in stage 2, and Kerrville was in stage 1 restrictions.

March was another dry month across South Central Texas. Most of the region received less than normal rainfall with most of the southern and western areas getting less than 25 percent of normal. In addition to the dry month, March ended a dry six month period from October 2012 through March 2013. These six months ranked in the ten driest October to March periods at Del Rio, Austin Camp Mabry, and Austin Bergstrom International Airport. As a result, the drought worsened in 13 counties and only Atascosa and Frio Counties remained in better than severe category (D2) drought. Maverick County moved into the exceptional category (Stage D4), Bastrop, Caldwell, Dimmit, Fayette, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Williamson, and Zavala to extreme (D3), and Bexar, Lavaca, Medina, and Wilson to severe (D2). Edwards, Kinney and Val Verde remained in exceptional, Hays, Kerr, and Real in extreme, and Bandera, Blanco, Burnet, Comal, De Witt, Gillespie, Karnes, and Kendall in severe. Fire danger at the end of the month was low to moderate due to rain toward the end of March. Of the counties in D2 or worse drought 14 had outdoor burn bans if effect at the end of the month. These were Bexar, Dimmit, Edwards, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Kendall, Kinney, Maverick, Medina, Travis, Uvalde, Val Verde, and Wilson. The Texas Crop and Weather Report issued by Texas A and M Agricultural indicated soil moisture was a problem in dry land corn, sorghum, and cotton. Area lakes and reservoirs continued below normal pool elevations with Lake Amistad around 52 feet below normal, Lake Travis 50 feet below normal, and Medina Lake nearly 80 feet below normal which left it at 6.5 percent of capacity. The Edwards Aquifer was 19.9 feet below normal, and 4.7 feet below the level at the end of March 2012. San Marcos moved to stage 2 water restrictions. Uvalde was in stage 3 water restrictions, Austin, the San Antonio Water System, and the Barton Springs Edwards Aquifer Conservation District were in stage 2, and Kerrville was in stage 1 restrictions.
