- Freeze-thaw days. Water gets under shingles at night and expands as ice.
- Days at 90F or hotter. Heat bakes the oils out of asphalt and loosens sealant strips.
- Days with an inch of rain. Heavy rain tests flashing, valleys and gutters.
- Yearly precipitation. More water means more years of wet decking.
