Yes sir..thank God for that too..haha
I would think most places would present issues though if real close to bare ground with no air circulation as too much moisture comes up from ground evaporation. Not sure that freeze/thaw and rain levels matter so much compared to HO watering and cleaning the pool area might.
But hey we do get wet here...Southern Cali does too. Is but a myth from that song 'it never rains in sunny southern california' ..
These days boards are butted right together with no space so that don't help circulation. Is the guy opposed to laying a slab to put it on? Lots of venting..
