Frequently asked questions
Is a capital on a river bluff a flood problem or a seepage problem?
Both, on different streets. The rail terrace at the bottom sits in a table the Missouri holds up at the Osage's mouth. The houses cut into the bluff above it keep a buried uphill wall wet from thin soil over limestone long after the channel drops. May's 5.17 inches loads the rock first and the terrace second. Which half of town you are on decides which of the two you are buying.
The Missouri is back inside its banks. Why is a Capitol-bench wall still seeping?
That wall is holding the bluff. Water that entered the limestone above the house is still moving. The river sets the flood question on the terrace; the cut sets the seepage question on the benches. A bench house above the terrace can stay wet on that cut for days, which is why a falling river gauge is not a dry wall.
A spring appeared in the yard after a storm and then stopped. What was that?
A karst opening discharging. Limestone under these benches carries a May pulse and pushes it out wherever it finds an outlet, which can be the middle of a lawn. It stops when the rock drains, and it will come back with the next pulse.
