DTG printing through Santa Ana's year
With 30 days a year at 90°F or above, pale cotton tees stay coolest and can often print without a white underbase. The coolest month, December, still averages a high of 68°F, so the hoodie order can stay small. At about 13 inches of rain a year, shirts can dry on a line most weeks, sparing a DTG print the dryer's heat.
