What this week’s weather means for heating, cooling, pipes and fresh air.

Heating this week

47, 17 and 5°F are the test points heat pumps are rated at. About 12 hours are near freezing and damp, when outdoor units defrost more often.

Comfort

Dry air outside (dew point 32°F). Indoor air will run dry too — a humidifier keeping indoor relative humidity in the 30–50% range is more comfortable and cuts static shocks, without going so high it fogs cold windows.

Salida station, 1897–2017: records and averages

This station closed and is no longer reporting, but has a long history nearby. Its own average annual high was about 63°17°, over its full 1897–2017 record — not an NCEI normal, and not the same station as the computed averages above.
