Confused

Set up my summer waves 14 x 42 pool a few weeks ago and everything is going fine. Good chem levels etc. Ladder is lame and doesn't feel very sturdy but might get a better one.

Anyway last Sat when adding water with the garden hose I noticed water coming from under the pool near one leg and on opposite side a lessor amount under another leg. I stopped filling and kept an eye on things. The water dried up later that day. I figured I slopped water. Still kinda odd.

Pool level stayed ok all week, no big drops just normal evap - I live in So Arizona so it is now in the 90-100 every day and there will be evap. Ran the pump daily for about 5 hours and cleaned filter a few times.

Yesterday I added water with garden hose and saw no little streams of water or pooling water.

Today I after I vacuumed there was water coming out again under the same post and another different post almost opposite. This is not the low side.. I might have vacuumed last Sat - to be honest I don't remember - getting older. It is a very small stream and it looks like it has stopped now. About 30 minutes after I stopped vacuuming.

I don't see any bubbles and have "foot" checked the bottom for any small pinholes.

I am running the pump/skimmer that came with the pool - 1000 hp. The Vacuum is also what came with it.

Is it possible there is a small hole that the vacuum head sucks up and creates an opening for the water to go thru but then the natural suction "closes" it off when no vacuum nearby? Could this be condensation from ground temp to water temp? My water is at 75 and outside it is 90 but as day progress pool temp goes to 80 ish and at night outside temp is high 60's.
 
I had that same issue with my pool and yes it was right after vacuuming and there would be a small amount of water on the concrete but would dry up soon after. I don't think you have to be worried unless it doesn't stop.
