Summers bring about 45 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Rainfall is substantial: about 46 inches a year, 12 days of it an inch or more.2,3 Heavy rainfall makes flashing, drainage and ventilation details the difference between a sound assembly and a wet one. Snowfall averages about 9 inches a year.2,3
Heating dominates the year: about 3,736 heating degree days against 1,560 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. The coast is about 58 miles away, so storm systems arrive without salt air.4,5 Woodlake sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).6
