What Dallas's weather means for coffee shops
Dallas is hot but far from dry, with about 38 inches of rain a year and 108 days at 90°F or more, so staff tees should breathe: a lightweight tri-blend or cotton-poly in a dark color beats heavy cotton. Fleece gets a real window here: highs average below 65°F from December to February, long enough to stock a retail hoodie and a cuffed beanie at the register, ideally in time for holiday gift bags of beans. January nights drop to an average low of 38°F, so a staff crewneck earns its place for the first hour of the morning shift, and the same piece works as retail once the weather cools. In Dallas, 22 days a year reach 100°F, so staff working beside a hot espresso machine need the lightest breathable shirts the uniform allows, plus caps for any outdoor window. Expect the most rain in October, around 4.8 inches, which makes it a good month to give retail merch eye-level space by the register, where people waiting on drinks will see it.
