Lake levels fluctuate despite rainfall
Despite sporadic rainfall in the last two months, Montague County’s major lakes are not gaining any real water.
With just a few days left in January, Lake Amon G. Carter is 83.3% full at 917.70 mean sea level and Lake Nocona is at 67.4% or 821.83msl.
Nocona moved into stage three of its drought contingency plan on Dec. 13, 2023 after being at stage two since late August. The last time the community was at stage three was in 2012. At stage three restrictions allow watering on Sunday and Thursday for even addresses and Wednesday and Saturday for odd addresses. No watering is allowed from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
