What drying runs into in Palmetto Bay
Serving Palmetto Bay and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Palmetto Bay were built and the answer is 1976 at the median, 74.6 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1976 with three quarters of the stock older, the windows are aluminum units set into block with a sill track that is designed to collect what gets past the glazing and let it out through small openings in the outer face.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 56.85 inches, 9.19 of them in September, against a warm season that peaks at 84.3 degrees in July; rain recorded at CUTLER RIDGE 1.5 SSW 4.7 miles away and temperatures at MIAMI WSO CITY 6.9 miles away. September is the wettest month at over nine inches of a fifty-seven inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the tracks are carrying water for months at a time; openings that have filled with dirt over forty years meet that volume already closed.
How water losses tend to end in Palmetto Bay
- A drainage path in the window itself, so the frame is designed to hold water briefly and pass it out
- Small openings that silt up over decades, so the one route out closes without anything visible changing
- Overflow going inward at the sill, so the water enters at the base of the frame rather than at the glass
