Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Saint Cloud were built and the answer is 1981 at the median, 61.4 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1981 with about six in ten houses older, the basements were finished after the houses were built, and the openings needed for escape were cut through poured concrete walls rather than formed when they were cast.
Climate & seasonal risk
5 months in Saint Cloud have normal lows below freezing, January the coldest at 2.9 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in June at 4.47 inches of an annual 30.29; rain recorded at SARTELL 1.4 SSE 5.4 miles away and temperatures at ST CLOUD RGNL AP 5.9 miles away. June is the wettest month at under five inches of a thirty inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the freeze season is long; a saw-cut opening in a foundation wall is worked by the frost every winter in a way a formed one is not.
How water losses tend to end in Saint Cloud
- An opening cut through cured concrete, so there is no formed edge and no reinforcement returned around it
- A joint between the frame and the saw-cut face, so the seal is against rough concrete rather than a cast surface
- A well outside the new opening, often added at the same time and to the same standard
