What drying runs into in Watertown
Serving Watertown and the surrounding area, including Public Square.
Local housing stock
Roughly 11,714 of Watertown's 13,426 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1945; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1945 with nearly nine in ten houses older, the older neighborhoods stand along the river through the middle of the city, on ground whose relationship to the water depends on what the ice is doing.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 70.9 degrees against 19.8; the 44.36 inches a year peak in October at 5.01, both figures recorded at WATERTOWN, 1.7 miles away. October is the wettest month at 5.01 inches of a 44-inch year and five months average a low below freezing with January lows near 11 degrees, so the river carries ice for months; a thaw in February breaks it up and sends it downstream in a mass.
How water losses tend to end in Watertown
- A rise caused by a blockage rather than by rainfall, so nothing in the weather predicts it
- Water arriving within an hour and dropping as fast, so there is no time to prepare and no evidence after
- A jam that forms at the same constrictions each time, so the risk is tied to position on the river
