Frequently asked questions
The James is south of here. Why would a September remnant still wet this basement?
This community drains to the Chickahominy, not to a tidal gorge. A 4.66 inch remnant fills headwater swamps that have no unused room, and a 1993 floor sits in that silt. A Fall Line story from the river city does not set the table here. The swamp and the perch do. Same remnant month; different river.
The yard drained. The lower level did not. Where is September sitting?
In the silt. Piedmont soil here drinks at the surface and then perches, and a finished lower room is often right at that depth. A dry lawn is the top emptied. A wet carpet is the lens. If the stain is at the buried side, look at the cut-fill line, not at the ridge cap.
One side of the house stained and the other did not. Same remnant?
Often the buried cut. 1990s lots were benched, and September water follows that shelf to one plate. The other side sits on fill that drains differently. A 1993 house can take a remnant at a single edge for a grading reason, not a roof reason. The wet elevation is the map.
