Frequently asked questions
Edina is also peat and lakes. Why is a headwaters bog different?
Edina is metro creek peat with a July peak. This is a northern bog with a June peak and a freeze that lasts into the rain. The water fails as ice-plugged tile and as peat that never really thaws. Same word, peat; different winter.
June rain on a still-frozen tile. What does that look like in the basement?
Sheet flow to the low corner and a dry line that starts working in July. The tile is a pipe of ice in June, so 4.49 inches cannot use it. When the thaw finally opens the run, the same basement may dry without anyone touching a pump.
A sand pad on the lake. Is peat still the diagnosis?
Sand passes the lake. A seiche or a high Lake Bemidji wets that pad from the side, which is a lake story, not a bog story. Peat is inland and low. Treating a sand lot like a bog lot will have you looking for organic soil that is not there.
