    Lake Travis and areas around Austin

    2011 Drought Threatens Fish, Wildlife, Parks in Texas. June 2011 was the hottest month ever recorded in Texas. At this point, the current drought is the third worst on record based on the Palmer Drought Index, behind the droughts of 1916-1918 and 1951-1957.The Texas drought map is a sea of red, with almost the entire state in extreme to exceptional drought, except for about 10 counties in northeast Texas. What’s worse, little relief is predicted, and some forecasts show a strengthening of La Niña weather conditions this fall, which could prolong the drought.

                      I read about this before: Holy Bible, New Testament, the book of Revalations. Droughts, Floods, Hurricanes, Earthquakes all at the same time. We are having droughts conditions here, our neighbor Louisiana is have floods. Earthquakes in in Washington D.C. and California. Wildfires. Makes me think about what is really important to me and my relationship with God.
