Climatologist Says Texas Drought Could Last Until 2020 « CBS Dallas / Fort Worth: "The state climatologist for Texas says the record drought of 2011 could be only the beginning of a dry spell that could last until 2020.
State climatologist John Nielsen-Gammon tells the Austin American-Statesman says water planning is often based on standards set by the previous record drought of the 1950s, which lasted nearly 10 years. Nielsen-Gammon, who also is a Texas A&M professor of atmospheric sciences, says the present drought could be significantly longer-lasting than what has been planned for."
