Rainfall across western and central
portions of South Texas in May helped
alleviate the severity of drought
conditions in this region. However, lack
of significant rainfall along and north
of Interstate 37 resulted in drought
conditions developing across the
northern Coastal Bend and Victoria
region. Some places in this region saw
less than 25 percent of normal rainfall
for the month of May.
By the end of May extreme drought
conditions were occurring over a small
portion of southern Webb and Duval
counties. (per the U.S. Drought
Monitor: http://

Patricio, Nueces, western Kleberg,
eastern McMullen, Jim Wells, and

drought conditions were occurring
across La Salle, western McMullen,
Webb, and eastern Kleberg counties.
The primary impacts of the drought
through May continued to be agricultural
as well as elevated fire danger. Warm
temperatures and lack of rainfall
continued to stress crops and livestock.
Producers supplemented feeding cattle
due to the lack of grazing areas.

Rainfall across western and central
portions of South Texas in May helped
alleviate the severity of drought
conditions in this region. However, lack
of significant rainfall along and north
of Interstate 37 resulted in drought
conditions developing across the
northern Coastal Bend and Victoria
region. Some places in this region saw
less than 25 percent of normal rainfall
for the month of May.
By the end of May extreme drought
conditions were occurring over a small
portion of southern Webb and Duval
counties. (per the U.S. Drought
Monitor: http://
www.drought.unl.edu/dm/monitor.html)
Severe drought conditions were occurring
across Victoria, Calhoun, Goliad,
Refugio, Aransas, Bee, Live Oak, San
Patricio, Nueces, western Kleberg,
eastern McMullen, Jim Wells, and
northern Duval counties. Moderate
drought conditions were occurring
across La Salle, western McMullen,
Webb, and eastern Kleberg counties.
The primary impacts of the drought
through May continued to be agricultural
as well as elevated fire danger. Warm
temperatures and lack of rainfall
continued to stress crops and livestock.
Producers supplemented feeding cattle
due to the lack of grazing areas.

Drought
Rainfall across western and central
portions of South Texas in May helped
alleviate the severity of drought
conditions in this region. However, lack
of significant rainfall along and north
of Interstate 37 resulted in drought
conditions developing across the
northern Coastal Bend and Victoria
region. Some places in this region saw
less than 25 percent of normal rainfall
for the month of May.
By the end of May extreme drought
conditions were occurring over a small
portion of southern Webb and Duval
counties. (per the U.S. Drought
Monitor: http://
www.drought.unl.edu/dm/monitor.html)
Severe drought conditions were occurring
across Victoria, Calhoun, Goliad,
Refugio, Aransas, Bee, Live Oak, San
Patricio, Nueces, western Kleberg,
eastern McMullen, Jim Wells, and
northern Duval counties. Moderate
drought conditions were occurring
across La Salle, western McMullen,
Webb, and eastern Kleberg counties.
The primary impacts of the drought
through May continued to be agricultural
as well as elevated fire danger. Warm
temperatures and lack of rainfall
continued to stress crops and livestock.
Producers supplemented feeding cattle
due to the lack of grazing areas.
