What drying runs into in Port Jefferson
Serving Port Jefferson and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Only 25 percent of Port Jefferson's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1972 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. The median house dates to 1972 and three quarters predate 1990, frame houses stepped into the hillside so the lowest level is partly buried, which puts one wall against the slope and another open to the harbor air.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Port Jefferson gets 48.5 inches a year with March heaviest at 4.65, and the drying season runs from a 33.7-degree January to a 75.3-degree July; both figures recorded at MT SINAI, 1.9 miles away. March is the wettest month at 4.65 inches out of 48.5 for the year, with two months below freezing and January lows near 26 degrees, so the heaviest rain lands in early spring on ground still holding the winter's water.
How water losses tend to end in Port Jefferson
- Houses stepped into the slope, so one wall is buried and the other is not
- Runoff from the hill above reaching the uphill wall during a spring storm
- Lowest levels finished as living space, hiding the wall that takes the water
