:mega: **09/03/2024:** The groundwater levels service has switched endpoints, and `dataretrieval` was updated accordingly in [`v1.0.10`](https://github.com/DOI-USGS/dataretrieval-python/releases/tag/v1.0.10). Older versions using the discontinued endpoint will return 503 errors for `nwis.get_gwlevels` or the `service='gwlevels'` argument. Visit [Water Data For the Nation](https://waterdata.usgs.gov/blog/wdfn-waterservices-2024/) for more information.
