Northport, NY Roofing Siding and Windows
Northport’s Premier Roofing, Siding and Window Contractor
Northport is a quaint historic Village, located on the North Shore of Long Island, which lies within the Town of Huntington in Suffolk County. Known for its secluded harbor, lovely parks and beaches, vibrant downtown, and historic, Victorian-era homes, Northport offers many pleasures to its residents, including recreational activities such as boating, fishing, and golf. The harbor is also home to the Northport Yacht Club and the Northport Village Park, which hosts events and festivals throughout the year. Other attractions in Northport include the John W. Engeman theater, where Broadway shows are performed by professional actors, and numerous charming eateries, including the Copenhagen Bakery, Maroni Cuisine, and the Ritz Café.
Although Northport does not have its own train station, the LIRR station in East Northport is just about a mile away, making commuting to New York City relatively easy.
While Northport is a great place to live, this idyllic village is no stranger to bad weather, including exposure to the strong hurricanes that impact Long Island from time to time. When Hurricane Sandy hit Northport in 2012, high winds downed many trees and power lines, cutting power to residents for weeks. In more recent years, Northport has been hit by multiple fast-moving coastal storms that have caused wind damage and severe flooding. Unfortunately, it appears that bad weather of this kind will continue to touch Northport as the effects of climate change continue to manifest.
Northport’s Climate: Hot Summers and Cool Winters
Northport’s climate is characterized by hot, humid summers and cool winters. Temperatures range throughout the year from a low of 24 in January to a high of 82 in July. Temperature swings such as these can be challenging to many components of your home’s exterior. For example, they can cause the expansion, contraction, and damage of roof materials, which in severe instances can cause water to migrate through the structure.
Roofing, siding, and window components can be damaged by the kind of high winds that occasionally affect Northport. The average wind speed in Northport is 9.4 miles per hour, with the windiest month being January, when average wind speeds increase to 11.7 miles per hour. Northport’s least windy month is July, when the average wind speed is just 7.1 miles per hour.
Northport’s summers can be quite muggy, with the most humid months being July and August. High humidity levels pose challenges to your home — not just from the weather but also from cooking, showering, washing the dishes, and any type of water usage. If moisture is allowed to build up inside the attic for a protracted period of time, such an accumulation can cause damage to your roof.
Rain – especially the kind of heavy rain often accompanying coastal storms – poses another weather challenge. In terms of rainfall, Northport’s “wet” season runs from November through August, with a greater than 28 percent chance of rain on any given day. Northport’s wettest month is June, with an average of 9.5 days yielding at least 0.04 inches of rain.
