This week’s rain, particularly storms out in the Hill Country along the Pedernales and Llano rivers, and the subsequent runoff, have raised Lake Travis by more than six feet. The rise is expected to continue today, eventually bringing back about half of the fifty feet lowering by the drought.
That would still leave the lake about twenty feet lower than normal for this time of the year. But one more flash flood out there should be enough to fix that. Then I’ll have to scurry out to the lake and get some pictures to add to the befores I’ve already posted. Because, if things stay true to form, by Christmas we’ll be talking about the flooding on the lake. Heh.
