Mount Vernon climate
by the numbers
Mount Vernon's unique plumbing challenges
About 142 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out

First frost typically lands around October 16
Seasonal timing
Mount Vernon's median first frost lands around October 16, arriving about the same week as it does out in Huxley on the other side of the state. An older line running through an unheated crawlspace here rarely gets much warning once that date passes and the cold sets in.
