About Squabble Creek
Squabble Creek is a natural waterway. It flows through parts of Rockwall County. The creek's journey starts near the Ralph M. Hall municipal airport. It then flows until it reaches its end point, which is close to the Rockwall Golf and Athletic Club.
Why the Creek Can Be Dry
In the past, Squabble Creek had much more water. However, people started using a lot of groundwater. Groundwater is water stored underground. When too much groundwater is used, the creek's springs can dry up. This means the creek often has less water or even runs completely dry.
During hot summer months, or when nearby lake levels are low, the creek might not even reach the lake it usually flows into. This shows how important it is to manage water carefully.
