Winters are long: the Spanish Fk Pwr House station averages 118 nights a year at or below 32°F and 37 at or below 20°F.^2,3 Long winters put freeze-thaw, ice dams and snow load at the center of roofing and masonry decisions.

Summers run hot, with about 60 days a year at 90°F or more and 4 at 100°F.^2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies. Annual precipitation is moderate, about 20 inches.^2,3 Snowfall averages about 66 inches a year.^2,3 Real snowfall means ice-and-water membrane, attic ventilation and roof load are standard parts of a roofing scope.

Heating dominates the year: about 5,415 heating degree days against 1,013 cooling degree days (base 65°F).^2,3 In a heating-led climate, insulation and air sealing carry most of the energy-code weight for any work that opens the envelope.
