Reported Crop Circles for the State
of Texas -
Sabine Pass, Jefferson County (November 30, 2005)
A single 40’ diameter circle found in reeds and marsh grass along Texas Highway 87. The RDF circle was flattened all in one direction, much like the Mendon, NY reeds circle reported in October; it was not swirled.
A wire fence ran through the circle, and the plants were pushed up against it.
The circle was very difficult to access because the area surrounding it was under 1-2 feet of standing water, and being in the marsh, there were fears of alligators and water snakes.
Hurricane Rita passed directly over Sabine Pass, Jefferson County, Texas when making landfall on September 24, 2005. The area and town is still devastated from the Category 4 hurricane damage, and is still cleaning up the damage.
