Frequently asked questions
How much of a hurricane actually reaches this far inland?
Most of the rain, very little of the wind. Systems weaken quickly once they leave the coast but carry their moisture well inland, so the inland damage pattern is saturation and drainage failure rather than structural wind damage. The rainfall totals are comparable to the coast's.
Sandy soil should drain. Why does water stand?
Because sand only buys the first hour. The permeable zone here is shallow, and once it fills, water meets tighter material and stops moving down. A thunderstorm ends before that matters; a tropical system runs for a day or more, which is long enough that the back half of it has nowhere left to go.
The crawlspace never floods but always smells. Worth addressing?
Yes. Sustained high humidity supports growth on joists and subfloor with no liquid water ever present, and smell is usually the only signal it gives. The absence of standing water is not evidence that the space is dry enough to leave alone.
