Triple digits today...sigh! Heat advisory today. Besides the area water restrictions (Stage II), our water company has the RO system out and is trucking water in here, boil water alert, the notice said don't water the landscape (until when?), the Exceptional Drought, Extreme Drought and Severe Drought areas are spreading fast in Texas. And I've heard many areas of Texas are experiencing a big problem with grasshoppers stripping foliage off plants...but we aren't having an increase of those here. As far as water, we're paying the price for rampant over-development in areas where water has been a big problem for a long time and it can only get worse. Not to mention how they're going to keep up with the need for ever-increasing demands on electricity usage. Only the economic woes (not yet so bad here compared with other parts of the country, but will get worse, I'm betting) is finally slowing down the overpopulation/overdevelopment in southcentral Texas. http://drought.unl.edu/DM/DM_state.htm?TX,S
