A drought is a period of unusually low rainfall. A farmer notices that a well on the farm stops providing water during a drought. A nearby lake also has less water in it than usual. Write a paragraph that explains what has happened to the water table in the area to cause these results.

Answer:
A drought is a period of drier-than-normal conditions that results in water-related problems. ... When rainfall is less than normal for several weeks, months, or years, the flow of streams and rivers declines, water levels in lakes and reservoirs fall, and the depth to water in wells increases.
Explanation:
During severe droughts, people rely heavily on groundwater—the water held underground in aquifers. An aquifer can become depleted when more water is pumped out of it than is replenished by rainfall or other water sources. ... When the water level drops, your well may begin to produce sand and air bubbles.
