What drying runs into in Hammond
Serving Hammond and the surrounding area, including Whitmar Acres.
Local housing stock
62.6 percent of Hammond's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1984, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1984 with six in ten houses older, the town sits where slightly raised sandy ridges carry the farming and the housing, with flat poorly drained ground in the strips between them.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Hammond gets 62.21 inches a year with July heaviest at 6.84, and the drying season runs from a 49.9-degree January to a 81.5-degree July; rain recorded at HAMMOND 1.8 miles away and temperatures at HAMMOND 5 E 4.7 miles away. July is the wettest month at 6.84 inches of a 62-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the rain is heavy and constant; the low ground between the ridges holds what falls on it for days rather than hours.
How water losses tend to end in Hammond
- A few feet of elevation deciding everything, so neighboring lots differ sharply
- Flat ground with no fall between the ridges, so water stands rather than moving
- Farm drainage designed for fields, so what exists was not built for houses
