Tullahoma Weather and Ground Conditions for Driveway Gravel

Tullahoma gets about 59 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for a driveway that lasts. About 88 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, which means scheduling the delivery onto firm ground can take some planning.

About 79 days a year drop below 32F, which affects the work window and how much the ground moves. Snowfall here averages about 3 inches a year, so plowing can damage a loose surface if it has not been compacted. Ground freezing is real but moderate, which influences how deep the base layer needs to be.

Soils mapped in the Tullahoma area are commonly moderately well drained, so depending on drainage, you may need more or less base stone under the surface layer. The ground around Tullahoma 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. That means drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
