Drought in Texas, November 1 to 30, 2025

Nearly all of South-Central Texas received less than normal precipitation during November. Most of the area saw less than 25% of normal. This worsened the drought in some locations and maintained it most other places. However, Fayette and Gonzales Counties received enough rain to improve one category from Extreme (D3) Drought to Severe (D2) Drought. The largest negative change was Maverick County which went from Abnormally Dry (D0) to D2. Comal County went from D2 to D3. De Witt and Zavala went from Moderate (D1) Drought to D2. Bexar and Medina remained in D3; Atascosa, Bastrop, Caldwell, Dimmit, Frio, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Lavaca, Travis, and Wilson all stayed in D2. At the end of the month, the seven-day average streamflow was much below (<10%) normal on the Lavaca, San Marcos, lower Guadalupe, and Atascosa Rivers and below normal (10%-24%) on the lower Colorado, San Antonio, lower Nueces, and Frio Rivers. The Edwards Aquifer actually rose 1.6 feet but was still 38.0 feet below normal. Medina Lake dropped 1.5 feet and was 84.2 feet below conservation elevation. Lake Travis dropped 1.0 foot and was 13.0 feet below normal. Canyon Lake dropped 1.1 feet and was 20.1 feet below normal. Most water providers encouraged conservation while San Antonio and Universal City imposed stage 3 restrictions and New Braunfels and Austin had stage 2. Of the counties in D2 or worse drought, Atascosa, Bastrop, Bexar, Caldwell, Comal, De Witt, Dimmit, Fayette, Frio, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Lavaca, Medina, and Zavala had outdoor burn bans in effect at the end of the month.
