What San Antonio's weather means for coffee shops
San Antonio is hot but far from dry, with about 34 inches of rain a year and 112 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. Hot-drink weather is brief, with highs under 65°F only from December to January, so keep the fleece order small, one hoodie design and a beanie, and land it before the holidays. Winter mornings turn cool, with lows near 40°F in January, which makes a long-sleeve tee or light crewneck the most useful extra layer for the opening crew. Expect the most rain in May, around 4.4 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.
