What drying runs into in Redlands
Serving Redlands and the surrounding area, including Sandstone, Villa De Valencia Town Homes, Friendly Hills Mobile Estates, Redlands Heights, Smiley Heights.
Local housing stock
Roughly 20,507 of Redlands's 26,256 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1976; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1976 with nearly four in five houses older, the subdivisions went onto land that had been in citrus for decades, and the grading for houses did not erase the furrows, berms and head ditches the groves were watered through.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Redlands has a normal low below freezing, and December is the coolest at 40.1 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in February at 2.99 inches of an annual 12.87; both figures recorded at REDLANDS, 1.8 miles away. February is the wettest month at under three inches of a thirteen inch year and no month averages a freeze, so almost all the water arrives in a few winter storms; ground still shaped for irrigation sends that water where the grove wanted it rather than where the house does.
How water losses tend to end in Redlands
- Old furrows and berms under the surface, so water follows lines laid out for trees rather than for buildings
- Ground that channels rather than sheds, so flow concentrates in places nothing on the surface explains
- A pattern that predates the houses, so it is the same on every lot in the street
