CERTAINLY IMPROVED SOIL MOISTURE CONDITIONS OVER THE ENTIRE REGION.
THE RAINFALL HAS HELPED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF WINTER FORAGES...AND
HAS ALSO SLIGHTLY RAISED STOCK PONDS AND AREA LAKES. HOWEVER...MANY
PRODUCERS CONTINUING TO REDUCE THEIR HERDS...OR BRING HAY IN FROM
OTHER STATES AT CONSIDERABLE EXPENSE.


FIRE DANGER IMPACTS.ALL BURN BANS THAT HAVE BEEN IN EFFECT FOR MUCH OF THE FOUR STATE
REGION HAVE BEEN DROPPED...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF TITUS COUNTY IN
NORTHEAST TEXAS.


CURRENT WATER RESTRICTIONS.A WATER EMERGENCY REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR SOUTHERN CADDO PARISH...WHERE
THE AQUIFER HAS BEEN DRAWN DOWN BY HEAVY USE DURING THE ONGOING DROUGHT
AND SUMMER HEAT WAVE. MANDATORY WATER RATIONING REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE
SOUTH CADDO...NORTH DESOTO...KEATCHIE...AND SOUTH CLAIBORNE PARISH IN
NORTHWEST LOUISIANA UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. MANDATORY WATER RATIONING IS
ALSO IN EFFECT FOR THE CITY OF MANY LOUISIANA AND FOR MUCH OF SABINE
PARISH...AS LEVELS AT TOLEDO BEND LAKE...THE PARISH`S PRIMARY WATER
SUPPLY...HAS FALLEN WELL BELOW THE BOTTOM OF THE WATER PUMPS. THE
PARISH IS NOW HAVING TO RELY ON SMALLER WELLS THROUGHOUT THE PARISH
FOR THEIR WATER SUPPLY. THE CITY OF SAN AUGUSTINE TEXAS IS NOW UNDER
A SEVERE RATIONING OF WATER. IN ADDITION...THE CITIES OF SHREVEPORT
AND NATCHITOCHES LOUISIANA...AS WELL AS PITTSBURG TEXAS...ALTO...
GLADEWATER...WHITE OAK...MARSHALL...NACOGDOCHES...MELROSE...CARTHAGE...
HEMPHILL...BULLARD...GILMER...AND HUNTINGTON REMAIN UNDER VOLUNTARY OR
A MILD RATIONING OF WATER UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. OTHER SMALLER WATER
SYSTEMS ACROSS EAST TEXAS AND NORTH LOUISIANA ALSO REMAIN UNDER VOLUNTARY OR
A MILD RATIONING OF WATER UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE AS WELL.


CLIMATE SUMMARY...
RAINFALL WAS MORE PLENTIFUL DURING NOVEMBER...WITH FIVE TO SEVEN RAIN DAYS
OBSERVED DURING THE MONTH WITH A SERIES OF COLD FRONTAL PASSAGES. NOVEMBER
MARKED THE FIRST MONTH IN A YEAR THAT NEAR OR ABOVE NORMAL RAINFALL WAS
RECORDED OVER PORTIONS OF EAST TEXAS AND NORTH LOUISIANA. MUCH ABOVE
NORMAL RAINFALL ALSO FELL ACROSS SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND ADJACENT SECTIONS
OF SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS (SEVIER AND HOWARD COUNTIES). HOWEVER...PORTIONS OF
EXTREME NORTHEAST TEXAS...FAR SOUTHERN ARKANSAS...AND MUCH OF NORTHCENTRAL
LOUISIANA OBSERVED BELOW NORMAL RAINFALL...WITH MONTHLY RAINFALL DEFICITS OF
ONE TO NEARLY THREE INCHES COMMON ACROSS THESE AREAS. BELOW IS A LIST OF THE
NOVEMBER RAINFALL...THEIR DEPARTURES FROM NORMAL...AND PERCENTAGES

PRECIPITATION/TEMPERATURE OUTLOOK...
A VERY WET AND COOL SHORT TERM WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE
FIRST HALF OF THE NEW WEEK...AS A COLD FRONT DRIFTS SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE
REGION AND BECOMES STATIONARY OVER DEEP EAST TEXAS...NORTHERN LOUISIANA...
AND SOUTHCENTRAL ARKANSAS. AREAS OF RAIN AND POSSIBLY A FEW EMBEDDED
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND MOVE ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION
TODAY THROUGH MONDAY ALONG AND BEHIND THE FRONT. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL AMOUNTS
OF TWO TO IN EXCESS OF FOUR INCHES OF RAIN IS EXPECTED OVER MUCH OF THE
REGION...EXCEPT FOR AMOUNTS OF ONE TO TWO INCHES POSSIBLE OVER THE SOUTHEAST
SECTIONS OF NORTHCENTRAL LOUISIANA. TEMPERATURES WILL FALL SHARPLY BEHIND
THE FRONT...WITH MUCH BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES EXPECTED FOR MUCH OF THE
WEEK...AND CLEARING EXPECTED TO TAKE PLACE THURSDAY. A COOL AND DRY
WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH MID-DECEMBER.

THE THREE MONTH TEMPERATURE OUTLOOK FOR DECEMBER-JANUARY-FEBRUARY...ISSUED
BY CLIMATE PREDICTION CENTER (CPC)...INDICATES GREATER PROBABILITIES
FOR ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES OVER ALL OF THE FOUR STATE REGION. THE
THREE MONTH PRECIPITATION OUTLOOK THROUGH FEBRUARY ALSO INDICATES ABOVE
NORMAL PROBABILITIES FOR BELOW NORMAL RAINFALL AREAWIDE...AS LA NINA
CONDITIONS CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY OVER THE EQUATORIAL PACIFIC THIS WINTER.
ALTHOUGH SOME UNCERTAINTY STILL REMAINS IN THIS LONG TERM FORECAST...IT
DOES APPEAR THE ONGOING DROUGHT WILL CONTINUE THROUGH NEXT SPRING.


HYDROLOGIC SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK...
MUCH ABOVE NORMAL RAINFALL THAT FELL ACROSS SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN
ARKANSAS DURING NOVEMBER HAVE RECHARGED AREA RESERVOIRS AND LAKES ACROSS
THESE AREAS...WITH MOST LOCALES AT OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL POOL STAGE.
RESERVOIR AND LAKE POOL STAGES ALSO SLIGHTLY IMPROVED DURING NOVEMBER
ACROSS EAST TEXAS AND NORTH LOUISIANA AS WELL...ALTHOUGH SEVERAL EAST TEXAS
LAKES SUCH AS LAKE TAWAKONI...LAKE FORK...MARTIN LAKE...LAKE NACOGDOCHES...
LAKE TYLER...SAM RAYBURN LAKE...AND TOLEDO BEND REMAINING SOME SIX TO IN
EXCESS OF TWELVE FEET BELOW NORMAL. TOLEDO BEND RESERVOIR...ONE OF THE
LARGEST RESERVOIRS IN THE SOUTH...CONTINUES TO SET NEW ALL TIME LOWEST POOL
STAGES EVER ON RECORD...WHICH REMAINS IN EXCESS OF A FOOT AND A HALF LOWER
THAN THE PREVIOUS RECORD OF 161.25 FEET SET BACK IN MID OCTOBER OF 2006.
GIVEN THE WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL EXPECTED OVER MUCH OF THE REGION DURING
THE NEXT FEW DAYS...SOME IMPROVEMENT IS EXPECTED EXPECTED AT TOLEDO BEND
THROUGHOUT MID DECEMBER.


NEXT ISSUANCE DATE...
THE NEXT DROUGHT INFORMATION STATEMENT WILL BE ISSUED BY LATE DECEMBER.
