Frequently asked questions
Lindo Channel is a park ditch. Why would it wet a house a block off it?
It was dug as Big Chico Creek's overflow, not as a lawn amenity. January rain fills the creek, the channel takes the extra, and volcanic alluvium under Bidwell transmits both. A house a block off the bank is still in that alluvium. A dry park path is not a dry pad.
Paradise burned on the ridge. Does that change January water in the valley?
It can. A burned ridge sheds faster into Big Chico Creek. The extra arrives as a January pulse the Lindo was sized for a wooded slope, not a scar. Valley pads then take a higher table. The fire was on the ridge; the water shows up here.
The creek went down but the raised floor is still damp. What is holding it?
The alluvium. Bidwell's volcanic ground takes January water from Big Chico Creek and Lindo Channel and gives it up slowly, so a raised floor on the east side sits over wet ground for weeks after the creek looks contained. The channel is the visible part. The table under the crawl is the part that lingers.
