Local Weather History For August 31st...
2006 (Multi-Seasonal Summary): The long-term drought conditions that began in late 2005 over much of the Southern Plains
of the U.S. were alleviated by late August over the West Texas South Plains region. Extreme (D3) drought conditions were
observed during the first few weeks of August over the extreme southeastern Texas Panhandle and the northern Rolling
Plains. Severe (D2) drought conditions encompassed areas along and east of the Interstate 27 corridor north of Lubbock,
then westward toward the southwestern South Plains during early August. Rainfall over the extreme southwestern Panhandle
and the northwestern South Plains in late July helped to reduce the impact of drought there by early August.
