South Riding sits in IECC climate zone 4A, which sets the energy-performance bar here no matter who ends up installing your windows. A window license file doesn't cover South Riding on this site, so Google Maps supplies the 9 ranked names you see below. Checked October 2026.

South Riding's climate zone, in plain terms
Loudoun County's normal precipitation runs about 43.2 inches a year, with 21.0 inches of snow, which is a separate question from energy performance but still shapes which window details matter in South Riding.
Moisture and glass performance are handled by different parts of a window's spec sheet, and a South Riding buyer benefits from checking both instead of assuming one implies the other.
Data: U.S. EPA / DOE, ENERGY STAR, ENERGY STAR Version 7.0 Climate Zones by County/ZIP (Windows, Doors, and Skylights) (V7.0); Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (DOE Building America), Guide to Determining Climate Zone by County: Building America and IECC 2021 Updates (PNNL-33270) (2021 IECC), from the nearest NOAA station 3.3 mi away.
What FEMA's risk data says about South Riding
FEMA rates Loudoun County's hurricane risk as Relatively Low and its wind risk as Relatively High.
Neither rating changes a window's energy label, but both are exactly what impact-resistance and design-pressure ratings are built to answer for a South Riding home.
Ask specifically about design pressure and impact rating for South Riding, not just energy performance, if either risk rating comes back on the high side.
- Hurricane
- Relatively Low
- Strong wind
- Relatively High
- Winter weather
