Drought continues in Texas

I reported several weeks ago that state climatologist John
Nielsen-Gammon had predicted: Ive started telling anyone whos interested that
its likely that much of Texas will still be in severe drought this time next
summer, with water supply implications even worse than those we are now
experiencing.

The towering wall of billowing red dust roaring across the blue
West Texas sky took Monroe Debusk back more than eight decades to the Dust Bowl
years when he was growing up on his family's cotton farm.
The 90-year-old farmer looked out his window Monday and saw the sky darken as a
rare 1.5-mile-tall, 250-mile-long dust cloud stretched across the rain-starved
land and blotted out the sun.
"I didn't do anything just thought back to the way it used to be," Debusk
said, recalling the massive dust storms that overwhelmed the region in the
1930s. "That's the way they were."
