What drying runs into in Cape Girardeau
Serving Cape Girardeau and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
The typical Cape Girardeau house dates to 1975, with about three quarters of the stock (71.2 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly mid 1970s work. The median house dates to 1975 and just over seven in ten predate 1990, frame and brick over full basements with older masonry near the river, so a basement loss meets block walls, framed partitions and the stair together.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 79.3 degrees against 34.6; the 47.91 inches a year peak in May at 5.27, both figures recorded at CAPE GIRARDEAU MUNI AP, 5.8 miles away. May is the wettest month at 5.27 inches against 47.91 for the year, with three months below freezing and January lows near 26 degrees, so the heaviest rain lands in late spring when the heating season has ended and the air is already humid.
How water losses tend to end in Cape Girardeau
- Late-spring storms arriving after the heating season, when indoor air has lost its dryness
- Block basement walls holding water in the cores behind finished partitions
- Stair stringers wicking water up from the slab where they land
