Monsoon’s Here!
The monsoon season has finally arrived in the valley. Rainfall totals exceeding 2" in some communities have been reported, with the typical street flooding and flooding washes.
This is a good time to remind everyone about the "Stupid Motorist Law". This law makes it illegal to pass traffic barriers and cross a flooded wash. Violators who have to be rescued will be required to pay for their own rescue! Don’t think about it. It is a dangerous practice, not just for the violator, but for the emergency crews who have to risk their lives to rescue them. The nice thing about monsoon flooding is that the washes will recede in an hour or two. Just be patient, you’ll get home sooner and safer.
On another note, there are areas in the valley with extreme soil conditions. They may be expansive soils, or worse, they may be prone to earth fissures. When buying a home, you need to know if the home of your dreams is built on one of these types of soil.
Expansive soils can crack your foundation.
Areas subject to fissures are even more dangerous. These are cracks in the earth that may be 10-20 feet wide, at least as deep and a quarter mile long or more. We haven’t had homes swallowed yet, but a horse was recently killed by a fissure related incident.
The majority of earth fissures occur in the southeast valley.
If you are buying a home, be sure your agent checks to see if your home is in an area of extreme soil conditions. If it is, get a soil survey.
