In practice, thermal cycling does the damage in San Fernando — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. Attic temperatures in San Fernando drive shingle life as much as the weather above does, which is why ventilation counts more here than the brochure suggests. San Fernando gets its rain in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once.
