One good year does not eliminate a long term drought. Did anyone learn anything in junior high and high school?

In terms of surface water, it’s over (for now). But groundwater is what takes multiple years to recharge, and even then some of the capacity has been permanently lost due to over-pumping, so no matter what there’s going to be less groundwater to fall back on when the next dry spell hits.
