Sad... I went to ASU (Angelo State University) and then on into the military.. Goodfellow AFB was the last base I was stationed at (In San Angelo, Texas).. Those were good times :/

Aw for heaven’s sake! The same thing hapened to my neighbor’s swimming pool a few years back. A little chrlorine and new filter cleaned it up nicely.

They need to let some water through the dams :/
I used to go fishing with my father in Juno, Texas(population 8)(Devil’s River).. last time I went there (about 30 years ago..) it was less than a trickle, pretty must dry :/

Lake Travis is sitting at about 50% of its capacity, but dropping about one foot per week.

The next time he came out of the pool, did he happen to have 7 heads and 10 horns...?

the feral pigs were wading in and eating the nearly-beached fish... I initially read that as federal pigs; but then I realized I repeat myself.

After looking at that chart, I’m glad not to be living in Lamar County these days.

We have not even had an inch of rain since last October.
The conditions out here are horrible.

I initially read that as federal pigs; but then I realized I repeat myself. No, there is currently a difference. In Texas, you can hunt the feral variety. From helicopters, if you choose (see YouTube).

Oh good grief, that’s red? The Brazos River and Oyster Creek, in Texas, during floods gets redder than that!

The Red River is red because the land it runs through is extremely reddish in color.
There would not be any concern over that, because it doesn’t signify a dying body of water that becomes discolored and putrid.
Whereas, the OC Fisher Lake per the article is red because of what is wrong with the lake, not because of the red land beneath it like the Red River.

Sometimes photos don’t do justice to colors.
That said, the lake color is being compared to what it was before it started dying. It wasn’t even the slightest tint of red when it was healthy. I know. I lived there then.
To see it now is disturbing.
