Local conditions in Lawson
Serving Lawson and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Only 29.2 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1979. Seven in ten homes predate 1990, on basements and crawl spaces cut into ground with very little depth above the rock. There is almost nothing to absorb a storm.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — KEARNEY 3E, 7.4 miles out — puts the annual normal at 41.21 inches, with July heaviest at 5.41. July leads at over five inches within forty-one for the year, arriving in a small number of very intense cells rather than as steady weather.
Common water damage problems in Lawson

- Short violent cells arriving on a surface that accepts almost none of them
