Spring storm season is here. We've already seen our fare share of severe thunderstorm warnings and unfortunately, tornado warnings this spring that have caused damage.
Drought conditions are continuing to worsen here in East Texas. The latest outlook from the United States Drought Monitor shows much of East Texas in a severe drought, while everyone is at least abnormally dry.
While our side of the state is experiencing sunshine and lovely weather, just a few hours away in Southeast Texas, its a totally different and scary story.
With the lack of rain in 2011, the result was extreme drought conditions and numerous wildfires across East Texas, including the Bear Creek Fire in September, the largest wildfire in East Texas History.
