When to clean gutters in Monrovia
The first fall frost comes around October 15 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around April 24 (median dates, NOAA normals).

Gutter and downspout size for Monrovia rain
The short, hard downpour is what a gutter is sized for. In Monrovia the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 7.51 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 2). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 960 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,920, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook.
