Frequently asked questions
Eighty-five inches a year. Is January really that different from the rest of the winter?
It is the month that can drop 14 inches in river after river, on ground that is already soaked from November and December. The rest of winter is wet; January is the overload. A 1948 crawl that was 'always a little damp' takes standing moisture at the skirting when that month lands. The annual total is the climate. January is the event that finishes the felt.
The rivers stayed in their channels. Why is the crawl still sitting in wet ground?
Tide and stage still set the table. When January holds the Chehalis and Wishkah up, the soil under the mill lots is up with them, even if the water never tops the bank. Piers and crawls that were dry at ordinary winter stage are then in wet ground. You do not need a flood photograph. You need a month that will not let the rivers fall.
Would gutters even matter in a climate this wet?
They keep 14 inches of roof water from landing in the same strip the table is already wetting. That is a lot of extra load on 1948 skirting. Discharge it away from the house, not into the next lower lot, and the wall has one less river to deal with. Gutters will not make Aberdeen dry. They will stop you from pouring January onto the crawl on purpose.
