Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Elyria were built and the answer is 1967 at the median, 81.4 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1967 but with a great deal older, the older houses stand on sandstone quarried nearby, and that stone is open enough to draw water upward through itself, so the sill and the framing bearing on it take moisture from the foundation rather than only from the loss.
Climate & seasonal risk
June brings 4.14 of the 40.41 inches Elyria sees in a normal year, and July averages 74.8 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at ELYRIA 0.4 SE 0.5 miles away and temperatures at ELYRIA 3 E 2.8 miles away. Four months with lows below freezing set the split season from December into March, and a porous stone foundation holding water through that stretch is also the one that spalls at the face; the June rain peak lands when the ground around it is warm and the wicking is at its fastest.
How water losses tend to end in Elyria
- Porous sandstone foundations wicking upward, so the sill plate takes moisture from the stone independently of the loss
- Sill and band framing sitting directly on that stone, so the wood that carries the building is the wood hardest to dry
- Stone faces that spall after a wet winter, so a wall that held water shows it the following spring rather than at the time
