What drying runs into in Greenwood
Serving Greenwood and the surrounding area, including Waverly Station, Bearcat Village.
Local housing stock
Only 23 percent of Greenwood's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1968 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1968 with over three quarters predating 1990, these houses have had pet doors fitted into back and garage doors over the years, each one a permanent opening cut through a door at the bottom rail and fitted with a flap.
Climate & seasonal risk
December brings 5 of the 47.81 inches Greenwood sees in a normal year, and July averages 81.2 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at GREENWOOD 3.4 NNW 3.1 miles away and temperatures at GREENWOOD 1 miles away. December is the wettest month at 5 inches of a 47.81-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the wettest weather comes in winter storms with wind behind them; a flap at floor level is the least weathertight thing on the building when that arrives.
How water losses tend to end in Greenwood
- A permanent opening in an exterior door at the level water runs
- A flap that seals under its own weight only, so wind lifts it open
- The door's own bottom rail cut through, which is where a door takes its wetting
