Lincoln's seasons, indoors

Indoors, the season shapes how you use each room. Lincoln's warmest month is July, at an average high of 89.4°F, and its coldest nights come in January, at an average low of 14.4°F.

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

Bellevue, 45 miles away, has 18 days a year at 90°F or more, fewer than Lincoln's 42.

Living rooms on winter evenings

143 nights a year fall at or below freezing. Closing the shutters after dark puts a layer of still air between the room and the cold glass; open them again in the morning so the window dries out.

Bedrooms on hot summer evenings

With 42 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

Street-facing rooms

55% 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.
