Windsor's weather and homes
In Windsor, July averages a high of 28.3 °C and January a low of −7.1 °C, about 24 days a year reach 30 °C, 115 nights fall at or below 0 °C, and 954 mm of precipitation falls in a typical year. That's wetter than 64% of the 160 Canadian cities we have climate figures for.
60% of homes are detached houses; 68% were built in 1980 or earlier.
Tecumseh, 9 km away, gets much the same rain and snow in a year.

Sun on the outside
With 24 days at 30 °C or more, functional exterior shutters that close over the glass can keep sun off it. Decorative ones that don't close only frame the window.
Older facades
39% of homes are from 1960 or earlier. On an older facade, exterior shutters are often about the look of the street; check any heritage rules before changing them. Interior shutters change nothing outside.
Rain on the outside
954 mm of rain a year is hard on exterior finishes, which need repainting or replacing on a schedule. Shutters inside the window stay dry.
