About homes and weather in St. James
About 62% of homes in St. James were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1972. Buildings that age often still have older single-pane glass and worn aluminum frames, so loose panes, failing seals and tired door hardware come up a lot. More homes here went up before 1940 than in any other period.
Housing is a mix, with about 68% single-family houses and 18% in apartment buildings. About 69% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
NOAA storm records for Watonwan County list 7 hail reports (the largest 1.5 inches across), 6 thunderstorm wind reports and 1 tornado from 2020 through 2024. Hail of an inch or more is what the National Weather Service classes as severe. See how Watonwan County compares.
Long freezing winters crack sealant, shrink gaskets and turn small gaps into real heat loss. Fall is the time to reseal, and winter is when draft and leak problems show up.
