What drying runs into in Sterling Heights
Serving Sterling Heights and the surrounding area, including Dodge Park.
Local housing stock
The typical Sterling Heights house dates to 1977, with about three quarters of the stock (73.1 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1970s work. Around a median of 1977 with nearly three quarters predating 1990, these subdivisions were laid out with a raised planted bank between the houses and the arterial road behind them, built for screening rather than for drainage.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 34.46 inches, 4.14 of them in August, against a warm season that peaks at 72 degrees in July; rain recorded at UTICA 2.9 E 5 miles away and temperatures at MT CLEMENS ANG BASE 10.9 miles away. August is the wettest month at 4.14 inches of a 34.46-inch year and four months average lows below freezing, so summer storms arrive on flat clay ground and the spring melt arrives on frozen clay; both need somewhere to go, and the berm is in the way of it.
How water losses tend to end in Sterling Heights
- A raised bank across the low side of the lots, acting as a dam it was never meant to be
- Back yards holding water after every heavy storm rather than draining to the road
- A structure on common ground, so no single owner can alter it
