Frequently asked questions
The levee held. Why did the basement still take water in June?
The levee stops overbank flow, not the table. Sand and gravel under this valley floor transmit the Great Miami into a 1973 cellar until the water inside is the river's stage. June rain then adds to a table that was already high. A dry-looking levee is not a dry basement on this sand.
If 93 percent of the cellars predate 1990, are we still fighting a levee story?
The levee is the wrong story. Those cellars are original and their drains often outlet toward the river. A 1973 median with 93 percent standing before 1990 is a city of floors poured as if the wall ended the water problem. When June has the Miami high, those outlets reverse. New windows will not fix a drain that has become an inlet.
The Miami dropped a week ago. Why is the cellar still wet?
Millrace fill. Older streets sit on canal and mill fill that stores June's table and releases it slowly after the river falls. The cellar then stays wet on the fill's schedule. A dropping gauge is the right news for the next crest, not a dry-out certificate for this week.
