Frequently asked questions
The rain fell on the streets above and reached us all at once. Why so concentrated?
The gorge funnels it. Streets above the oven terrace gather a June cell and deliver it faster than the Youghiogheny can accept, so it stacks on the terrace instead of leaving. The shape of the town does the concentrating.
The ovens are cold. What did they leave under the first street above the Youghiogheny?
Fill, ash, and a grade that still sheds to the river. A 1942 wall on that fill can crack and take June water from the side with no roof failure. The ovens are a memory. The coke terrace is still the lot, and the first street above the Youghiogheny still sits on it.
South Connellsville is two miles upriver. Do their gorge walls fail the same way in June?
Same river, different plat. Walk the lot. A cellar on this terrace can fail as coke fill; a lot upriver can fail as a different cut. The 1.4-mile gauge does not make South Connellsville the same house, and a gorge wall two miles on is still a different pour.
