Dust and grit settle on Santa Fe Springs roofs through the dry months and wash into the drainage the first time it rains. Thermal cycling does the deterioration in Santa Fe Springs — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. It is the same story on most Santa Fe Springs streets.
