Rains End Drought Pattern in Texas April Milam Area
Late April showers lifted drought concerns as the San Gabriel River rose to flood level near Georgetown while the Belton Dam held steady above the Little River confluence. Milam received 4 to 8 inches in three weeks, grass and crops prospered, cattle prices stayed steady, and spring grain and cotton planting neared completion. The pattern shows April and September bring major rainfall, a holdover from 1966–67 drought cycles.
