BEXAR COUNTY, Texas - Recent rainfall across parts of the Hill Country and upstream of Medina Lake has brought a noticeable boost to the drought-stricken reservoir, but the levels remain critically low.

As of Tuesday afternoon, Medina Lake was at 5. 2% full with a water level of 981. 09 feet.

That is up from 3. 9% just 48 hours earlier, marking a sharp short-term increase following recent inflow from the Medina River.
