What Fort Worth's weather means for bands
With about 114 days a year at 90°F or more, outdoor dates in Fort Worth run hot from spring into fall, so lighter tees and caps should be stocked deeper than fleece. Pack a stack of hoodies for winter club dates, when January nights average 37°F, and give the rest of the van to tees, tanks and caps. Tees carry the table from March to October, when average highs reach 70°F, the stretch when outdoor stages are likeliest. About 27 days a year reach 100°F, so keep boxed stock out of the hottest part of the van and set the table in shade for any afternoon date. About 30 nights a year reach freezing or below, so a handful of beanies per winter date is an easy add-on at the table.
