Annual rainfall across the cities we deliver to in Delaware runs from about 47 to 48 inches. Freezing days range from about 79 to 96 days a year below 32F, depending on where you are. Most of the state sits in the moderate band for ground freezing.
The dominant soil groups across the served cities are hydrologic groups A and B, which drain well. This means a deeper base lift is recommended to keep the gravel or rock stable through wet cycles. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
