Drought Eases in Texas as Rainfall Improves
Murphy notes La Nina ending could reset conditions but summer awaits. 2011 marked Texas driest year on record with 14.88 inches and wildfires burning nearly 4 million acres, destroying over 3,000 homes and killing 10. Drought monitors show shrinking extremes, Dallas Fort Worth and North Texas out of drought, while 23 percent remains in severe category. Meteorologist Ron McQueen remains cautiously optimistic for late spring showers.
