Waterproof weather and a seasonal business

Climate normals for 1991-2020 from St. Joseph, 13 miles away, put the August average high at 93°F and the January average low at 36°F. About 58 inches of rain and melted snow fall in a normal year, most of it in January. About 108 days a year hit 90°F or more. Long, hot summers mean steady work for AC repair, pool care and pest control, and customers search urgently when something breaks. If you offer emergency or same-week service in bad weather, state it clearly and keep the contact form short.
