Here are the latest level checks for Barton Springs and the Lovelady Well. Both are the District’s drought triggers. Remember, conservation is key. After last week’s rain event, Barton Springs and Lovelady are rising. But as always, please continue to conserve. La Niña conditions have developed in the Pacific and this typically leads to conditions thru winter that are, on average, warmer & drier than normal here in south-central Texas. Without additional rain for a prolonged amount of time we could return to Stage II Drought Restrictions.
Nov. 8, 2021 – Barton Springs remains above the Stage II Alarm Drought Threshold of 38 cfs (cubic feet per second). It is currently at 81.9 cfs.
Nov. 8, 2021 – The water level in the Lovelady Well remains above Stage II Drought Threshold of 478 ft msl (feet above mean sea level). It is currently around 487.8 msl.
