We received this message from our friend Bob Rose at the LCRA tonight:

Not sure if you’re interested in this factoid about the level of Lake Travis.  We’re certainly not proud of this, but it’s a measure of the exceptional drought that has been in place.  Last night, the level of Lake Travis passed the lowest level measured during the drought of 2006-2007.  That level was 643.55.  Today’s level at 3:30 pm is 643.14 This now places the current level of Lake Travis in 5th place for lowest level since the lake was created.
