What drying runs into in Louisville
Serving Louisville and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Only 21.6 percent of Louisville's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1974 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1974 with nearly eight in ten houses older, the town sits on the belt of soft chalk that runs across the state, with a thin layer of heavy dark clay weathered from it lying over the top.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Louisville has a normal low below freezing, and January is the coolest at 33.9 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in February at 5.68 inches of an annual 57.51; both figures recorded at LOUISVILLE, 1.3 miles away. February is the wettest month at 5.68 inches of a 58-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the clay is saturated through the winter and then dries hard in a long hot summer; it moves through a full cycle every year.
How water losses tend to end in Louisville
- Clay with an unusually wide range of movement, so seasonal change is large rather than slight
- A shallow layer over rock, so there is nowhere for water to go once the clay is full
- Movement every year rather than in extremes, so the damage is cumulative and progressive
