Local conditions that affect gravel and rock jobs in Caruthersville

Caruthersville sees about 74 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means scheduling delivery onto firm, dry ground is important. The county also has about 71 days each year when the temperature goes below 32F. That affects the work window and how much the ground moves during freeze-thaw cycles.

Soils mapped in the Caruthersville area are commonly poorly drained. That means you may need more base stone under the surface layer than you would on better-drained ground. The ground around Caruthersville is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where it is drained, it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.

Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. The ground freezes moderately, which can shift a base if it is not well-compacted. Snowfall averages about 3 inches a year, and plowing can damage a loose surface, so a compacted layer is a good idea.
