What drying runs into in Salem
Serving Salem and the surrounding area, including South Salem, Grant, West Salem, Highland, Liberty, Oak Park, Sunnyslope, Middle Grove.
Local housing stock
The typical Salem house dates to 1980, with close to three fifths of the stock (59 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1980s work. Around a median of 1980 with six in ten predating 1990, this housing was built for a climate that delivers its water slowly, with modest gutters and drainage that copes easily with the rate while dealing with a great deal of total volume.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 46.53 inches, 7.84 of them in December, against a warm season that peaks at 69.3 degrees in July; rain recorded at SALEM 1.1 WSW 1 miles away and temperatures at SALEM MCNARY FLD 1.7 miles away. December is the wettest month at 7.84 inches of a 46.53-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the wet season runs from autumn to spring without a break; it is duration rather than intensity that defines what happens to a building here.
How water losses tend to end in Salem
- Failures that never announce themselves, since nothing overflows or runs visibly
- Ground that stays at capacity for months, so there is no dry spell for a wall or a crawl space to recover in
- Small defects passing water continuously rather than during storms, so the total is large and the event is invisible
