What drying runs into in Gresham
Serving Gresham and the surrounding area, including Northwest, Holly Brook, Central City, North Central, Historic Southeast, Centennial, Gresham Butte, Mount Hood.
Local housing stock
Only 36.1 percent of Gresham's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1981 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1981 with nearly two thirds of the stock older, the houses sit where cold air spilling out of the gorge meets the mild wet air off the coast, which is the combination that produces freezing rain rather than snow.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 40.66 inches, 6.15 of them in December, against a warm season that peaks at 69.6 degrees in August; both figures recorded at PORTLAND TROUTDALE AP, 3.7 miles away. December is the wettest month at 6.15 inches of a 41-inch year and no month averages a freeze on average, so the cold is episodic rather than sustained; an ice event here arrives into a climate with no frozen season to prepare for it.
How water losses tend to end in Gresham
- Ice loading gutters, branches and lines together, so several failures arrive at once
- A climate with no real winter, so nothing about the buildings or the trees is adapted to it
- Power loss with the ice, so pumps and heating stop in the same hours
