What drying runs into in Kirkland
Serving Kirkland and the surrounding area, including Juanita, Totem Lake, Maple Glen, Meritage Ridge, Houghton, Snyders Corner.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Kirkland were built and the answer is 1984 at the median, 61.6 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1984 with six in ten houses older, a considerable part of the housing sits on slopes of glacial material that has failed before and is mapped as liable to fail again.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Kirkland gets 37.82 inches a year with November heaviest at 5.85, and the drying season runs from a 41.8-degree December to a 67.1-degree August; both figures recorded at SEATTLE SAND PT WSFO, 2.5 miles away. November is the wettest month at 5.85 inches of a 38-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the wet season is long and unbroken; slopes here are not wetted by a storm but saturated over months until they move.
How water losses tend to end in Kirkland
- Ground that has failed before, so the history of a slope predicts its future
- Saturation over a season rather than a storm, so movement follows a wet winter not a wet day
- Water on the slope as the trigger, so drainage is the part a household can actually influence
