What drying runs into in Montpelier
Serving Montpelier and the surrounding area, including Montpelier Historic District.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Montpelier were built and the answer is 1955 at the median, 86.1 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1955 with over eight in ten predating 1990, this housing is on hillside streets that are sanded rather than salted through a long winter, and all of that material washes downhill when the melt comes.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 70.3 degrees against 17.4; the 41.35 inches a year peak in July at 4.64, both figures recorded at MONTPELIER 2, 1.6 miles away. July is the wettest month at 4.64 inches of a 41.35-inch year and six months average lows below freezing with January lows near 7 degrees, so the winter is long enough to put down a great deal of sand and the melt delivers all of it at once.
How water losses tend to end in Montpelier
- Drainage structures filling with grit every spring rather than gradually
- Blockage arriving at the same time as the melt it needs to carry
- Properties at the bottom of a hill receiving whatever the inlets cannot take
