Frequently asked questions
West Haven uses this same weather record. Why would our cellars differ?
The ground differs. West Haven is an open shoreline; this city is ridges shedding onto fill. A cellar on the Mill River fill is in tidal groundwater. A cellar on the East Rock slope is in runoff. The gauge is shared; the mechanism is not, and the tails of the two pages are written to stay apart.
The house is a triple-decker. A leak on the third floor wet the first. How far can it travel?
The length of a joist and a stack. Floor framing is continuous, so water runs horizontally and then drops at a chase, often a room or two away from the fault. The stain is the exit. The source is frequently not in the room that is wet.
A cellar on the harbor fill is wet at high tide on a dry day. Rain?
Tide. Fill over former dock and mill ground is porous to the harbor, and a cellar there is a hole in that fill. A sunny high tide is the signature. A storm can add to it; it is not required.
