event_narrativeSevere drought continued across southeast Texas through September 2000. The combination of excessive heat and dryness caused many wildfires to burn during the first week of the month including a 4500 acre fire in Liberty County on the 4th and a 1965 acre fire in Trinity County on the 2nd. Water rationing continued during the first half of the month in several small communities and was briefly instigated in the city of Houston. Water line breaks and small grass fires were a common problem across southeast Texas, especially at the beginning of the month. By the end of September, damage estimates for the season to cotton, wheat, and forage crops and increased irrigation reached $102.3 million for southeast Texas.
