What drying runs into in Pierre
Serving Pierre and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
73.1 percent of Pierre's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1976, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1976 with nearly three quarters of the stock older, the town sits immediately below a major dam, so the river along its edge is not a natural watercourse but a managed one whose level is set by decisions made upstream.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 74.9 degrees against 19.1; the 20.52 inches a year peak in June at 3.42, rain recorded at PIERRE 1.3 S 1.4 miles away and temperatures at PIERRE RGNL AP 1.8 miles away. June is the wettest month at 3.42 inches of a 21-inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so local rainfall is modest and largely beside the point; what the river does here reflects the snowpack and the runoff of an entire basin upstream.
How water losses tend to end in Pierre
- A river level set by releases, so the rise has no relationship to the weather here
- Ground water tied to that level, so basements respond to a decision rather than a storm
- Releases sustained for weeks, so the condition lasts far longer than a rainfall event would
