Floodwaters Delay Corpus Christi Water Emergency to 2028

Floodwaters Delay Corpus Christi Water Emergency to 2028

Recent floodwaters have provided a temporary reprieve for Corpus Christi, Texas, delaying the city's projected Level 1 water emergency to September 2028. Heavy rains have replenished reservoirs, including Choke Canyon, which rose from 7.9% to 24% capacity in just a week. The city, which serves 500,000 residents and a major petrochemical corridor, had been under severe drought conditions, with earlier projections suggesting a water crisis as soon as May 2027. Officials are now using this additional time to advance $1 billion in water supply projects, including groundwater wells and a potential seawater desalination plant.

Floods Delay Corpus Christi's Water Emergency Until 2028

Floods Delay Corpus Christi's Water Emergency Until 2028

Recent intense storms have brought significant floodwater to Corpus Christi, Texas, delaying the city's projected water emergency until fall 2028. This development comes as floodwater continues to replenish the region's reservoirs, particularly Choke Canyon Reservoir, which saw its capacity increase from 7.9% to 24% in the past week. The city, which relies heavily on surface water from lakes and reservoirs, had been facing a potential water crisis due to prolonged drought conditions. The new influx of water provides Corpus Christi with additional time to implement water supply projects and potentially ease water-use restrictions for residents.

New World Screwworm Parasite Threatens U.S. Livestock, Research Focuses on Smell-Based Traps

New World Screwworm Parasite Threatens U.S. Livestock, Research Focuses on Smell-Based Traps

The New World screwworm, a flesh-eating parasite, is spreading north through Central America into the United States, raising concerns among animal health officials. Researchers at Colorado State University, led by Professor Jessica Metcalf, are studying the chemical signals that attract these parasites to develop more effective traps. The screwworm, which was eradicated in the U.S. over 50 years ago, has been detected again in Texas. The research aims to identify specific bacterial smells associated with wounds that attract the screwworm, potentially leading to better detection and control methods.
