Extreme (D3, level 3 of 4) Drought arrived in coastal Cameron County on March 24, and would prevail until the end of the month.

The wider storm

Persistent dryness across most of the Rio Grande Valley and Deep S. Texas ranchlands allowed a slow creep of Extreme to Exceptional (level 4 of 4) Drought as March reached its last week. Continued culling of cattle herds, as well as delays in spring planting and impacts on early spring growth, was noted by farmers and ranchers.
