Frequently asked questions
The crawl was wet in December and it is still wet in January. Why does it not dry?
Nothing dries in a Piedmont winter. Open joists over red clay sit in air that never gets dry enough to take the moisture back, so what December delivers stays until spring. The wetting is one month; the exposure is four.
Everyone expects summer storms. Why is winter the wet season here?
Because the Blue Ridge wrings the winter storms out on this side of the divide. The peak lands in December on red clay that will not dry, so mill-cottage crawls take water in the months most people have stopped thinking about it. January never gives it back.
A mill cottage crawl in January. What is actually wet?
The clay and the wood. December put the water in; January has no heat to take it out. Vents pull more wet air in. A summer cell would be followed by drying weather. A December front is followed by another front. Garden Gate crawls stay in that December water through January because nothing is drawing it out; a summer cell would have heat behind it.
