When to ship what to Prairie City

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

October in Prairie City: afternoons around 63°F, nights around 41°F. Nothing in the forecast averages argues against a doorstep delivery; any basket in the catalog travels well.

Freezing nights (January, February, March, November and December). The average low reaches 13°F in January. Jams, sauces and fresh fruit should not spend a night outside; offices, senior residences and hospitals all receive indoors.

Wettest months (June and May). Around 5.6 and 4.8 inches of rain on average. Boxes are sealed, not waterproof: a covered porch or a workplace address keeps the packaging presentable.

Weather only matters for the shipped box. The same-day flowers on this page are carried in by a local florist and handed over, whatever the month.

Normals: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information, 1991 to 2020, Des Moines 17 E station, 2.5 miles from Prairie City. 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.
