What drying runs into in Morgantown

Local housing stock
Only 29.2 percent of Morgantown's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1966 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1966 with more than seven in ten houses older, the town is built on steep slopes of loose weathered material that sits over the bedrock, and that layer creeps downhill continuously under its own weight.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 43.15 inches, 4.93 of them in July, against a warm season that peaks at 74.1 degrees in July; both figures recorded at MORGANTOWN HART FLD, 1.7 miles away. July is the wettest month at 4.93 inches of a 43-inch year and three months average a low below freezing, so the slopes are wet through the growing season and freeze and thaw through the winter; both of those speed the movement up.
How water losses tend to end in Morgantown
- Ground in continuous slow motion, so the movement is not a single event to be repaired
- Walls and floors pulled out of square over decades, so cracks reopen after being filled
- Water accelerating the creep, so drainage matters even though it is not the cause
