Winterset climate
by the numbers
Winterset's unique plumbing challenges
About 140 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out
The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Earlham
First frost typically lands around October 16
Seasonal timing
Winterset's median first frost lands around October 16, roughly the same week it lands in Clive well to the northeast. An older water heater that limped through a mild summer here often gives out right around that point, once nights start holding below 140 rather than just dipping there occasionally.
Common questions

People also ask
The city typically maintains the line and curb stop up to the property line, and the homeowner is responsible for the plumbing from that point into the house.
What a claim actually requires depends on the policy, though most insurers ask to see dated photos, a written timeline, and the eventual repair invoice. Checking directly with the insurance provider before repairs begin is the safer move, since guessing isn't worth the risk of a denied claim.
It can go either way. Some providers cover both the suburbs and towns like Earlham, while others focus on one side or the other, so availability depends on who's already working nearby.
Close to average. Roughly 140 nights a year drop below freezing and about 13 dip under zero, both near the middle of Iowa's range.
