October through December turned out to be extremely dry and unfortunately the Climate Prediction Center has issued a "La Nina Advisory" which indicates drier-than-normal conditions for Central Texas through at least this spring. Without significant rains in the Spring of 2011 we may be headed back into drought conditions by the summer.
