Just think, you can thank someone else's dangerous weather problem 1000 miles away for your better outlook on life.

[djmikey]

Hopefully come this weekend, Larry will STILL be determined THAT CHANGE G'ON COME! We'll see! Guys in Austin, if we get cooler and wetter, I'll try to send your way!

[vbhoutex]

TX has to get through possibly some of the hottest weather of the summer this weekend before we see any change. I hope Larry is right, just wish it was starting today instead of at the end of the month.

[AggieSpirit]

I'm tired of this crap.

Please God send us some highs in the low 90s and lows in the low 70s. That is at least tolerable.

SAN ANTONIO -- It looks like we are inching closer and closer to stage 3 water restrictions in San Antonio.

If we don't get rain soon, officials with the Edwards Aquifer Authority and San Antonio Water System are predicting we could enter stage 3 as early as next week. The Twin Oaks Aquifer storage facility near Elmendorf has been able to help us avoid stage 3, so far.

Stage 3 watering restrictions limits outdoor watering with sprinklers or irrigation systems to one day every other week.

SAWS and the Edwards Aquifer Authority officials also warn that restrictions could last throughout the fall and winter and into the spring.

from keye.com

Starting next week, the city of Pflugerville will implement Stage 2 water restrictions.

The new restrictions will start Monday, and includes a mandatory twice-a-week outdoor watering conservation schedule.

The watering schedule will be based on street address. Residential homes with an odd number can water on Wednesday and Saturday, and homes with an even number will have their turn on Thursday and Sunday. No watering is allowed on Mondays.

[vbhoutex]

Wow it sounds like your restrictions are less stringent than ours in Houston. We are at level two and are already on a 2 times a week based on address watering schedule.

[Shoshana]

San Antonio is currently on once a week (level II) going to once every other week (Level III) . Austin is on twice a week (I) going to once a week (level II) Sept 6. Austin has been on level 1 since sometime this winter I think.


Pflugerville has been on voluntary 2x week now it's mandatory.

Low 90's? I'll need to put on a light jacket.
