Frequently asked questions
Front Range cities peak on spring snowmelt. Why is October the month here?
The Grand Valley is west of the Divide, in a rain shadow the Book Cliffs wall in. October is a Pacific pulse on irrigated desert, not a May foothill melt. Eleven inches is the year; the canals are the rest of the budget. Riverfront at Dos Rios and the old orchard grid take an October canal pulse, not a Front Range May melt.
This is a desert. Why is the basement damp most of the year?
Because the water is delivered, not rained. Grand Valley laterals leak into ground graded to hold irrigation, so 1988 basements stay damp through a climate that barely rains. When the Colorado and the Gunnison peak together, the valley floor takes it from both directions.
The house is on the Redlands bench. Is the confluence still in play?
Not as overbank flow. The bench job is shedding October onto the valley. The confluence job is on the orchard floor. A downhill slab can take a bench storm with both rivers quiet. Heritage Heights on the valley floor can take a Redlands pulse with both rivers quiet; the bench is the catchment, not the confluence.
