What fails in Anna Maria
Serving Anna Maria and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Built around a median year of 1975, about three quarters of the housing (71.1 percent) in Anna Maria is older than 1990, so much of it was fitted for cooling the way builders of the mid 1970s went about it. About a third of the homes are held for seasonal use, and where one of the island's elevated houses runs its ducts through the open space beneath its floor, the cooled metal hangs in salt air off the Gulf that is wetter than it is, and the insulation wrapped around it holds what condenses.
Climate & seasonal risk
The normal dewpoint in Anna Maria stays at or above 70 degrees around the clock from July through September, reaching 76.1 in August; August is the wettest month, with 9.11 of 49.05 inches, rain recorded 13.9 miles away and dewpoint 26.5 miles away. East of Gulf Drive the ground averages only 3 to 4 feet above sea level, and the city has recorded ordinary afternoon thunderstorms at high tide flooding houses built at grade along Tampa Bay, leaving slabs and the foot of their walls wet into the humid weeks that follow.
What keeps buildings wet here
- Elevated houses with ductwork run beneath the floor, where the cooled metal and its insulation hang in salt air from the Gulf and collect the water that condenses on them
- Houses built at grade east of Gulf Drive, on ground 3 to 4 feet above sea level, where an afternoon storm at high tide can put water against slabs and into the lowest rooms
- Seasonal houses, about a third of the homes, shut for the hottest months with the cooling set high, so the island's air settles into closets, mattresses and cabinet backs
- Storm drains that empty into Tampa Bay and Anna Maria Sound and fill from the tide side at high water, holding rain in lawns and swales beside houses at grade
