Lake Travis Levels Rising: Update

Lake Travis, Montandon Ranch

Lake Travis has risen even more since our update yesterday; it is now at 645 feet and still rising. You can see up-to-the-minute conditions here.

With Lake Travis up and the creeks flowing again, now is the perfect time to buy.  Ranch sales are still down and sellers are extremely motivated to move their property. With the recent rains and forecasts for more rain throughout the coming months, once spring time rolls around and the market really gets going sellers might not be as motivated to sell.  There are still great rates and good terms for land deals.  Capital Farm Credit is offering 30 year term and 5 year fixed rates at 6.25% with 20% down.  Give us a call and we can get you in touch with a loan officer there.

Lake Travis Levels Rising

As a result of the heavy rains last week in the Austin area, the Lake Travis levels have risen six feet. Currently, the lake’s level is just over 642 feet, with more rain already coming today. 

It is still, however, 24 feet lower than average, and 39 feet lower than completely full. “El Nino should bring us more rain between now and the spring,” says LCRA Supervisor David Walker, “we’d need ten more floods like this one to do the trick.” The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s 2009 Winter Outlook and Climate Predictions expect El Nino to dominate weather patterns, bringing a cooler winter and above average precipitation for Texas, by an increase of 40%.
