September in Red Oak: afternoons around 88°F, nights around 67°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 95°F in August. 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 (October and May). Around 4.7 and 4.3 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.
