September in Sand Coulee: afternoons around 73°F, nights around 45°F. Nothing in the forecast averages argues against a doorstep delivery; any basket in the catalog travels well.
Heat (July). Afternoons average 85°F or more, peaking near 86°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.
Freezing nights (January, February, March, November and December). The average low reaches 18°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 2.7 and 2.7 inches of rain on average. Boxes are sealed, not waterproof: a covered porch or a workplace address keeps the packaging presentable.
