When to clean gutters in Central High
The first fall frost comes around November 7 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around March 25 (median dates, NOAA normals). A fall cleaning set for the weeks after that frost, when the branches over the house are bare, gets the year’s leaves in one trip; a spring visit follows once the pollen and catkins have come down.

Gutter and downspout size for Central High rain
Gutters are sized for the worst few minutes of a storm, not for the year. In Central High the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 8.96 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 8). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 800 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,610, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook.
