In response, Austin has banned all water activities on Lake Austin, Lady Bird Lake, and the Colorado River downstream of Longhorn Dam to protect the public.

Officials warn danger isn’t over — water’s still moving downstream, and road barricades must be respected. While the lake’s potential refill is a silver lining, this storm is a sobering reminder of nature’s force and the need to stay vigilant.
