    AUSTIN (KXAN) - So far this spring has not brought the rains that our wettest season usually does. By the mid-point of meteorological spring on April 15 we already had a 2″+ rainfall deficit which continues to grow. At the same point our drought continues to expand with slight worsening in some of our eastern counties with the latest drought report. While April looks set to end wetter-than-normal, it probably wouldn't be nearly enough to make a significant drought dent.
