The temperature swing in Parkside is narrow but the humidity is not, and sustained damp is harder on underlayment than heat alone. As a rule, skylight curbs on Parkside roofs fail early; the seal takes salt, UV and movement at the same time. In practice, fog drip in Parkside delivers more moisture than the wet weather gauge suggests, and it arrives nightly rather than in storms.
