Kill Devil Hills Climate and Your Driveway Gravel

Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part. Kill Devil Hills gets about 51 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage planning is essential. About 79 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, which means you need to schedule the delivery onto firm ground.

Freezing temperatures occur on about 58 days a year. Ground freezing is not significant here, but freeze-thaw cycles can move the ground slightly. Annual snowfall is around 1 inch, so plow damage is not a major concern, but loose gravel can be pushed aside if you plow.

Soils mapped in the Kill Devil Hills area are commonly moderately well drained. The ground soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff, which means less drainage stone is needed under the surface. Your specific soil may still require a base layer assessment.
