When to clean gutters in Wedgefield

Gutter and downspout size for Wedgefield rain
What overwhelms a gutter is a burst, not a season. In Wedgefield the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 9.11 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 9). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 790 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,580, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook. Try your own roof in the gutter and downspout calculator, which starts from this figure.
