Local housing stock
Close to nine in ten of the housing here predates 1990 — 96.1 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1938. This is pre-war housing in the true sense, with stone and early poured cellars, balloon framing, and roofs that were built before insulation practice caught up with the snow load they carry. The lake outlet means the river through the city has a level shaped by the lake as well as by rainfall.
Climate & seasonal risk
July is the wettest month here at 4.55 inches, part of an annual 45.93 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from JAMESTOWN 4 ENE, 4 miles off. July brings the wettest rain, and the water that damages buildings here mostly arrives as snow. Lake-effect accumulation is heavy and prolonged, and the melt that follows arrives on ground frozen well below the surface with nowhere to go but across it.
Common water damage problems in Jamestown
- Heavy lake-effect snow loading roofs built before modern insulation practice
- Ice damming at the eaves, driving meltwater back under the roof covering
- A river whose level is shaped by the lake outlet as well as by rainfall
- Pre-war stone cellars and balloon framing, where water travels the full wall height unseen
