Frequently asked questions
The bulkhead held. Why is the crawlspace wet after September?
The rivers rose. A remnant that lifts the Neuse and the Trent together raises the table under the point without overtopping a wall. Sand and colonial fill then wet the crawl from below. A dry street and a wet bay is a normal pair here in September.
Is 7.74 inches just a big rain, or is the confluence doing extra work?
Both. That monthly figure is already large. The extra work is two rivers and a tide occupying the same point, so the remnant has no unused channel. Inland clay towns with a 4-inch August do not have this stack. The number and the junction both matter.
Trent Woods is a mile away. Same job?
Same confluence climate, quieter streets, more trees. This is the colonial point and the 1989 mixed stock on fill. Use the storm-tide table and the old-town crawlspaces, not a Craven County label.
