What drying runs into in Harbison Canyon
Serving Harbison Canyon and the surrounding area, including La Cresta, Glen Oaks, Suncrest.
Local housing stock
The typical Harbison Canyon house dates to 1983, with roughly two thirds of the stock (62.1 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1980s work. Around a median of 1983 with six in ten houses older, the community sits in a canyon with steep slopes rising on both sides, and those slopes have been through fire more than once within the life of the houses.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Harbison Canyon has a normal low below freezing, and December is the coolest at 41.5 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in February at 3.65 inches of an annual 16.05; both figures recorded at ALPINE, 3.6 miles away. February is the wettest month at 3.65 inches of a 16-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the rain comes in a handful of winter storms; a storm of that size on ground that sheds instead of absorbing arrives all at once.
How water losses tend to end in Harbison Canyon
- Slopes that shed rather than absorb, so runoff is far greater than the rainfall suggests
- Ash and loose soil carried with it, so what arrives is mud rather than water
- A canyon with everything draining to one floor, so the houses are at the bottom of all of it
