What drying runs into in Avenal
Serving Avenal and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Roughly 1,776 of Avenal's 2,916 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1982; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1982 with six in ten houses older, the town is built on the weathered shale of the hills at the valley edge, a material that is firm and workable dry and loses its structure entirely when water gets into it.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 7.5 inches, 1.47 of them in February, against a warm season that peaks at 83.1 degrees in July; both figures recorded at KETTLEMAN CITY, 8.9 miles away. February is the wettest month at 1.47 inches of a 7.5-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the ground is dry for essentially the whole year; there is no seasonal wetting to reveal how the material behaves until something leaks.
How water losses tend to end in Avenal
- Ground that loses strength rather than swelling, so the failure is collapse rather than heave
- Almost no natural rainfall, so a leak is the first water that ground has seen in years
- Material that slumps where it is wetted, so the movement is sharply local to the source
