Texas Drought 2011: State Endures Driest 7-Month Span On Record
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/05/10/texas-drought-2011-record_n_859902.html

LUBBOCK, Texas -- With much of the nation focused on a spring marked by
historic floods and deadly tornadoes, Texas and parts of several surrounding
states are suffering through a drought nearly as punishing as some of the
world's driest deserts

... In New Mexico, the first three months of the year have marked the
second-driest start to any year on record. On Monday, a couple of new fires
started, adding to the more than 400 that have scorched more than 490 square
miles.

East of Abq it hasn't rained since Dec, only a couple light snows in Feb.
Good thing we've pushed our moisture conserving methods with this garden.

How's it looking in Lubbok, Ken?
