Frequently asked questions
The Watchungs are a mile north. Why would they wet a house on the plain?
Because they are the catchment. July cells hit the ridge, run Green Brook, and arrive on the plain as a pulse, not a soak. A cellar in Washingtonville is downstream of that ridge whether you can see it or not.
The railroad is still in use. Is that a water problem?
The grade is. It was built as a causeway across the brook's floodplain, and it still pinches the channel. A July flash that would have spread now stacks against the ballast and finds the nearest basement.
Water at the back wall only, on the slope. Is that Green Brook?
Usually not. That wall is holding the Watchung hillside. Brook flooding is a floor-drain and a street. Uphill seepage is a buried face that needs drainage at the cut, not a conversation about the channel.
