fencing seasonality in Columbus: a month-by-month calendar
fencing demand in Columbus runs through the year rather than in one season; temperatures peak in July (average high 84°F) and bottom out in January (average low 21°F), so weather affects scheduling more than demand. The figures below are NOAA 1991-2020 monthly normals for COLUMBUS OHIO STATE UNIV AP, about 4 miles from Columbus; read them with the Columbus market page, the fencing industry page, smart scheduling and the AI receptionist in mind.
