Medford weather and the vinyl siding calendar
Climate numbers on this page come from NOAA's 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals at the nearest suitable station, Medford Rogue Vly Ap (5 miles from the city center). They are 30-year averages, so any one year can run hotter, colder or wetter.
For exterior installation, the comfortable months in Medford are September through June: 10 of 12. Outside them, July and August have an average daytime high of 90°F or more.
Medford gets about 18 inches of precipitation in a normal year, including roughly 3 inches of snow. The wettest months are January, November and December (3.5 inches in December). Inside the workable window, June and September are the driest, at 0.7 and 0.5 inches. The station averages about 61 days a year at 90°F or above.

What local crews earn in Medford
The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 3 trades. We compare each trade's local median with the US median, weight the ratios by how much of the job each trade does, and apply the blend to the national labor cost. For Medford the blend is 0.98.
Carpenters (47-2031), 60% of the weighting: a median of $27.85 an hour, 4% below the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.01 and $35.12 an hour. About 910 work in the metro. That is 102.2 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
For construction laborers (47-2061, weighted 30%) the local median is $23.72 an hour, which is 5% above the national $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $21.42 and $29.22 an hour. BLS counts 520 of them working in the area, 58.4 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 70.5), so the local bench is thinner than average.
Sheet metal workers (47-2211), 10% of the weighting: a median of $28.08 an hour, 5% below the US median of $29.71. The middle half of them earn between $22.81 and $36.83 an hour. About 90 work in the metro. That is 10.1 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 7.7 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (carpenters) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $1,250 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $660. That is a swing of roughly 3.9% to 7.4% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
Medford has 89,060 jobs in total (BLS, May 2025), ranking 220th by size among the 300 metros on this site.
