What drying runs into in Elko
Serving Elko and the surrounding area, including Gateway River Estates, Elko Summit.
Local housing stock
Roughly 4,733 of Elko's 8,589 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1988; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1988 with just over half the stock older, some of the neighborhoods sit over ground heated from below, where warm water rises close enough to the surface to keep the soil above it from ever freezing.
Climate & seasonal risk
May brings 1.22 of the 9.99 inches Elko sees in a normal year, and July averages 71.9 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at ELKO RGNL AP, 1.3 miles away. May is the wettest month at 1.22 inches of a 10-inch year and seven months average a low below freezing, so the surface is frozen for over half the year; where the warm water is close, the ground behaves as though it were somewhere else entirely.
How water losses tend to end in Elko
- Ground that stays unfrozen while everything around it freezes, so it behaves differently lot by lot
- Warm mineralized water, so what reaches a building is corrosive as well as wet
- Frost depth varying across a short distance, so foundations founded to one rule sit in two conditions
