This is <br />when evapo- transpiration <br />typically exceeds rainfall which <br />leads to less recharge and a <br />decline in ground water levels. <br />Recovery of ground water levels <br />usually begins in October - <br />November (and sometimes <br />later) when precipitation begins <br />to exceed evapo - transpiration. <br />
