Gulfport's seasons, indoors

Indoors, the season shapes how you use each room. Gulfport's warmest month is August, at an average high of 90.7°F, and its coldest nights come in January, at an average low of 42.4°F.

Highs stay at 80°F or more from May to September: the months when west and south rooms need shade in the afternoon.

New Orleans, 58 miles away, has 86 days a year at 90°F or more, more than Gulfport's 69.

Bedrooms on hot summer evenings

With 69 days a year at 90°F or more, close the louvers on sunny afternoons so the bedroom isn't holding the day's heat at night, then tilt them open for air once the sun is off the glass.

Bedroom shutters

Bathrooms and laundry rooms

In a place with 62.7 inches of precipitation a year, damp rooms stay damp longer. Wood shutters suit a bathroom with a fan, kept out of shower spray; run the fan so steam doesn't sit behind closed louvers.

Street-facing rooms

65% of homes are detached houses, where front rooms face the street. Tier-on-tier panels let you close the lower half for privacy and open the top for daylight.
