Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Emporia were built and the answer is 1969 at the median, 82.6 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1969 with over eight in ten predating 1990, a good number of these properties keep a separate storm cellar cut into the ground away from the house, with a masonry or concrete chamber below and a hinged door over the steps.
Climate & seasonal risk
May brings 5.23 of the 36.75 inches Emporia sees in a normal year, and July averages 77.7 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at EMPORIA 0.9 W 1.2 miles away and temperatures at EMPORIA 3 NW 2.4 miles away. May is the wettest month at 5.23 inches of a 36.75-inch year and five months average lows below freezing, so the storms that make people use it arrive with a great deal of rain; a hole in the ground with a door over it fills at exactly that moment.
How water losses tend to end in Emporia
- A chamber below ground level with no drainage other than what soaks away
- A door at ground level over a flight of steps, taking surface runoff directly
- A space entered only during severe weather, so its condition is unknown beforehand
