When to ship what to Palouse

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

  2. Feb 42°27° Freezing
  3. Mar 50°31° Freezing

  12. Dec 37°25° Freezing

September in Palouse: afternoons around 76°F, nights around 44°F. Nothing in the forecast averages argues against a doorstep delivery; any basket in the catalog travels well.

Heat (August). Afternoons average 85°F or more, peaking near 85°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.

Freezing nights (January, February, March, November and December). The average low reaches 25°F in December. Jams, sauces and fresh fruit should not spend a night outside; offices, senior residences and hospitals all receive indoors.

Snow (January, February, March, November and December). About 33 inches a year on average. Allow one extra business day when the date matters: a birthday box that ships two days out still lands on time if it leaves three days out.

Wettest months (December and January). Around 2.8 and 2.7 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, Pullman 2 NW station, 9.7 miles from Palouse. 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.
