Seasons and peak demand in Modesto
Modesto summers bring highs in the mid-90s from June through September, with heat waves above 100°F. Winters are cool and foggy, with frosty mornings. Smoke from regional fires is most likely in late summer and fall, so a spring tune-up and filter upgrade are both worthwhile. Many older homes in the College Area and La Loma have ducts in hot attics that leak and limit cooling, so sealing them is one of the most effective upgrades.
