Designing a correctly sized heating or cooling system for a home, or determining the proper amount of insulation requires having some idea of the local weather severity. One measure of weather severity commonly used is degree days. Degree days are the sum of the daily temperature variances from a 65°F base temperature, for an entire heating or cooling season. Heating degree days are accrued whenever the average outside temperature is below 65°F. Cooling degree days are accrued on days when the average outside temperature is over 65°F.
