Bradford Climate and Soil Conditions for Fill Dirt
Bradford gets about 43 inches of precipitation a year. This level of rainfall means washout can occur on an uncompacted fill surface, so timing compaction quickly is important. The freeze season is long here, which shortens the window for spreading and grading to late spring through fall.
About 71 inches of snowfall each winter can lead to plowing damage on a loose surface. Soils mapped in the Bradford area are commonly well drained, which typically reduces the amount of base stone needed under the surface. The ground around Bradford is in hydrologic group B, meaning it takes water in at a moderate rate, so a standard base depth is usually enough.

Is Bradford a wet enough area to worry about washout?
Yes, Bradford receives enough rain that washout is a concern. About 87 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling delivery onto firm ground and compacting promptly is important.
