What drying runs into in Great Falls
Serving Great Falls and the surrounding area, including Downtown, Southside, Southwest, Westside, Sunnyside, Central, Fox Farm, Northside.
Local housing stock
The typical Great Falls house dates to 1965, with over four fifths of the stock (81.5 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly mid 1960s work. Around a median of 1965 with more than four in five houses older, the buildings are ordinary for their age, and what is unusual is what happens to them: a warm wind can raise the temperature by forty degrees within hours and drop it again the same way.
Climate & seasonal risk
June brings 2.74 of the 15.43 inches Great Falls sees in a normal year, and July averages 70.4 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at GREAT FALLS 16ST, 1.4 miles away. June is the wettest month at under three inches of a fifteen inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the rain is slight and the cold is long; what distinguishes the winter is not its depth but how often it reverses, sometimes several times a week.
How water losses tend to end in Great Falls
- Temperature swinging forty degrees within hours, so a line freezes and thaws repeatedly rather than once
- Repeated cycles working a split wider each time, so a pipe that held through the first freeze fails later
- Thaws that arrive with nobody expecting them, so a split releases while the household assumes it is still frozen
