Local housing stock
The median home in Savannah dates to 1971, and 70 percent of the stock was already standing when the 1990s began. Tabby and raised cottages on piers in the low wards sit over a tidal table; later slabs on filled southside canals take surcharge when those canals cannot outlet. Bluff houses are brick and frame that shed to the river, so water there is runoff and roof, not tide in the crawl.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — SAVANNAH 1.7 W, 2.3 miles out — puts the annual normal at 51.99 inches, with August heaviest at 7.25. August rainbands do not have to flood a lane to wet a hammock crawl. On the bluff the same cell runs the streets to the river; on a hammock the table is the tide, and a locked canal on the filled southside pushes water sideways under a slab.
Common water damage problems in Savannah
- Marsh-hammock crawls standing in tidal groundwater through a week with no rain
- Filled southside canals surcharging into slabs when August rain meets a locked outfall
- Raised cottages taking wind-driven rain under eaves while the bay below is already wet from the marsh
- Bluff-side downspouts dumping roof water onto the next lot's uphill wall on the slope to the river
