SAN ANTONIO, Texas. In San Antonio, Texas, this past summer, this

scene was common: Off-duty police officers patrolled streets, looking for

people illegally watering their lawns and gardens. The nation's most

drought-stricken state was deep-fried under unabated 100-degree days,

and waterways dried up, especially across south-central Texas, the

hardest-hit area. Residents worried about the water supply—and how long

it might last.

"The water table [is] fallin' and fallin' and fallin' … ," said Wendell McLeod,

in July. McLeod is the general manager of Liberty Hill Water Supply

Corporation, which serves Liberty Hill, a town that is northwest of Austin.

Answer:

Explanation:

he current drought began in October 2010. Though the situation has improved recently, the drought is far from over — and the conditions that caused it aren’t going away anytime soon.

Texas is a place susceptible to extreme weather, and the last year was no exception. Thousands of square miles were burned in wildfires, billions were lost in agriculture, and its impact could still linger in years to come.

The interactive map to the right shows how extreme drought conditions enveloped Texas, beginning in the early summer of 2010. The chart below shows how much of the state was under drought conditions over time. The slide show includes a timeline of how the drought affected TexansThe drought's impact has been severe, costing the state billions of dollars. These maps show where wildfires monitored by the Texas Forest Service spread last year, destroying homes and charring thousands of square miles..

All spoken languages have which of following characteristics in common? select all that apply.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
I'm going to say just the word "no." I know Spanish and English -

Spanish has upside down question/exclamation marks, and they don't use capitalized letters unless it's the beginning of a sentence, which marks out vocabulary.

Spanish is also nearly backwards from English - this marking out pattern of word order.
