Fog drip in San Clemente delivers more moisture than the rain gauge suggests, and it arrives nightly rather than in storms. Orange County is no different. Fasteners are the weak point within a mile of the water in San Clemente; plated nails give out while the covering above them still has years left. Orange County is no different. Put simply, salt air is the quiet issue on a San Clemente roof. It attacks fasteners, flashing and any exposed metal long ahead of the covering itself looks tired.
