41 images Created 1 Mar 2023
Drought years like 2013 - 33 % of capacity - and 2023 - currently 46% heading into March - can spell the need for conservation in the Austin Metro area. As a starting point!
Low lake levels and challenges for boaters and waterfront homeowners are only symbolic visual reminders of the serious concerns for the population of Austin and Central Texas and the folks downstream.

Little did she realize the scale of the problem. A few truckloads of bottled water won't keep a population of over a million going.
