Heating and cooling climate
NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for the AURORA STATE AP, OR station (about 8 miles away) show about 4,162 heating degree days and 455 cooling degree days in a typical year, with about 39 nights at or below freezing and 18 days reaching 90°F or more. Heating demand is far larger than cooling demand here, so the furnace, boiler or heat pump carries most of the load and a breakdown in a cold snap is the most pressing kind of call.
