Drought conditions continued to worsen across Northeast Texas during the first half of October with D2 Severe Drought conditions noted across virtually all of Northeast Texas.  D3 Extreme Drought conditions encompassed Red River, Bowie, Franklin, Titus, Morris, Camp, Cass, Upshur, Marion, Gregg, Harrison, Panola, Rusk, Shelby Nacogdoches, Cherokee and Angelina Counties.   By October 20th, drought conditions continued to deteriorate such that Bowie, Cass, Marion and Harrison Counties were classified at D4 Exceptional Drought conditions.  Towards the last week in October, an upper level storm system moved into the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley and produced some much needed rainfall to the region. The rainfall was significant enough that by the end of October, drought conditions were downgraded below D2 Severe Drought status across all of Northeast Texas.
