I've had property in East Texas now for about 25 years...this is the driest it has ever been at this time of year for that entire time period.
I have seen it in August and September in worse condition, but if this current trend continues, this will be the worst by far.
I was going to drain a small pond with HSB growers and transfer them to a larger pond, but now can't do that because I need the pond water for livestock. Hay crops are going to be slim if we don't get rain very soon.
