Annual precipitation is about 67 inches, with 21 days a year of an inch or more.2,3 Heavy rainfall makes flashing, drainage and ventilation details the difference between a sound assembly and a wet one. Measurable snow is rare (about 0.2 inches a year).2,3 Cooling dominates the year: about 2,599 cooling degree days against 1,616 heating degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a cooling-led climate, attic ventilation, duct sealing and window solar gain are where the energy code concentrates.
Semmes is about 16 miles from the ocean or Gulf coast in a straight line.4,5 Proximity to salt air makes fastener grade and corrosion protection part of every exterior quote. Semmes sits in IECC climate zone 2A (Hot-Humid).6 Building permits in Semmes are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
