What Oshtemo's climate asks of an exterior wall

With October alone bringing 3.7 inches in a typical year, Oshtemo is the kind of climate manufacturers have in mind when they engineer a wet-climate formulation.

33.2 inches of total annual precipitation keeps every seam, joint, and piece of flashing on a Oshtemo wall working hard.
