New Bern Climate and Ground Conditions

New Bern receives about 84 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is important to avoid rutting. The ground freezes about 43 days a year, which affects the work window and how much the base moves.

Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is. Soils mapped in the New Bern area are commonly somewhat excessively drained, so more or less base stone may be needed under the surface layer. Because the soil in hydrologic group A soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff, less drainage stone is needed under the surface.

Snowfall averages about 1 inch a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is not a major concern. Ground freezing here is not a significant factor, which means the base layer does not need to be as deep as in colder climates.
