What drying runs into in Lake Bluff

Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Lake Bluff were built and the answer is 1980 at the median, 66.8 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1980 with two thirds of the stock older, much of the housing sits on ground divided by these steep wooded cuts, so a lot can be level where the house stands and fall away sharply at the end of the garden.
Climate & seasonal risk
May brings 4.74 of the 39.28 inches Lake Bluff sees in a normal year, and July averages 72.4 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at LAKE FOREST 2.1 NNE 1.2 miles away and temperatures at WAUKEGAN 4.9 miles away. May is the wettest month at 4.74 inches of a 39.28-inch year and five months average lows below freezing, so the heaviest rain arrives on ground that has just come out of a long frost; a ravine slope moves in the spring more than at any other time.
How water losses tend to end in Lake Bluff
- A steep drop at the edge of the property, so water leaving the lot does so quickly and takes soil with it
- Ground that keeps moving after a wet spring, so the situation at the back of the lot changes year by year
- Foundation drainage discharging toward the slope, so the outfall is at the top of something that is eroding
