When to ship what to Lotus

Baskets travel by parcel and can wait on a step for an afternoon, so the month decides the contents. Thirty-year averages for Lotus, month by month, with the ones that matter marked.

  2. Feb 59°40°
  3. Mar 63°42°

  12. Dec 56°37° Wettest

September in Lotus: afternoons around 87°F, nights around 60°F. Chocolate and cheese are the two to route to an address where someone can bring the box straight in; cookie, nut, coffee and spa baskets shrug off an afternoon on the step.

Heat (June, July, August and September). Afternoons average 85°F or more, peaking near 93°F in July. Send chocolate, cheese and fresh fruit to a workplace or a front desk in these months; baked goods, nuts, coffee, tea and spa baskets can take a doorstep drop.

Wettest months (January and December). Around 7.0 and 6.8 inches of rain on average. Boxes are sealed, not waterproof: a covered porch or a workplace address keeps the packaging presentable.

For a September gift that cannot wait on a hot step, the same-day flowers on this page are the surer choice: a local florist brings them to the door and hands them over.

Normals: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information, 1991 to 2020, Auburn station, 10.0 miles from Lotus. Heat: average high 85°F or more. Freezing: average low 32°F or less. Snow: 2 inches or more in the month. Wettest: the two months with the most rain.
