What drying runs into in Olympia
Serving Olympia and the surrounding area, including Quixote Village.
Local housing stock
Roughly 16,241 of Olympia's 26,795 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1982; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1982 with six in ten houses older, the lower part of the city was made by filling tidal ground, and beneath that fill is a confined aquifer under enough pressure to rise on its own.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a December job at another, 64.2 degrees against 38.9; the 59.01 inches a year peak in November at 9.67, rain recorded at OLYMPIA 1.3 S 1.2 miles away and temperatures at OLYMPIA AP 4.7 miles away. November is the wettest month at 9.67 inches of a 59-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the wet season delivers an enormous volume; fill over a pressurised aquifer takes that from above while being pushed from below.
How water losses tend to end in Olympia
- Water under pressure beneath the fill, so it rises rather than merely sitting
- Made ground of unknown composition, so what is beneath a building is not predictable
- Two sources at once, so pumping the surface water does not address the other
