How Dillon Climate Affects Your Fill Dirt Job
Dillon sees about 206 days a year when the temperature drops below 32F, and the ground freezes deep and long. That narrows the work window to after the thaw, because frozen ground cannot be graded or compacted properly. The low precipitation of about 11 inches a year means dry conditions most of the year, which is good for working fill dirt but can lead to dust and the need to water for compaction.
Snowfall averages about 42 inches a year. If snow is on the ground when fill dirt is delivered, plowing or shoveling can disturb the loose surface. Schedule the delivery onto firm, snow-free ground. Deep frost keeps the ground closed for months, so this work waits for the thaw rather than the calendar.
Soils mapped in the Dillon area are commonly well drained, which means surface water moves through the ground at a moderate rate. The ground around Dillon takes water in at a moderate rate, so standard base depth under fill dirt is usually enough to keep water from pooling.
