Local Climate and Ground Conditions for Sand in Avoca
The ground around Avoca takes in water slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place under sand to prevent washout.
About 70 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground helps. Roughly 87 days drop below freezing, which affects how much the ground moves through the year.
Ground freezing here is deep and long, making the base layer depth important. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer.
