The ridge is going to weaken, it's just going to have less moisture to work with. There's still a slight chance for rain, just not as much as we were hoping.

Well, looks like the rain chances are sort of dwindling, but even if we don't get rain, at least it'll be more "normal" temperatures for a while. And the memory of the "surprise" showers and cooling we had here recently after it got hotter than Hades that one day! And I'm not believing any long-range forecasts, BTW! Not after they screwed up so bad on previous ones! What will happen that far off is just pure guess-work!

I saw that too.


The region cannot take another year of this, nevertheless two or more years. Texas will be part of the southwestern desert for sure. It's already decimated the hell out of the plant and wildlife as it is. After another consecutive year, there'll be pretty much nothing.


Plus my *ss WILL movie to more pleasant climates if we get another summer like this one again any time soon.

Agriculture will definitely take a huge hit, but I think that the cities such as San Antonio and Austin will have their own industries that aren't so dependent on the weather. The cities will bounce back. The country? Not so much.

I don't think we'll reach a permenent drought just yet. Not until the 2050's, I think. We'll see a green San Antonio sometime in the next decade. I'm just worried it will be because of too much water as opposed to an appropriate amount.

Errrr.....the law of randomness?! Plus, remember Summer 2007? Come on, guys. There's no reason that we won't go back to that one day all of a sudden. The world is a mysterious place.
