What Riverside's weather means for creators
Outdoor content in Riverside means heat: August averages a high of 95°F, and roughly 101 days of the year reach 90°F, so light tees, tanks and caps are the natural look on camera for most of the calendar. With December, the coolest month, still averaging a high of 67°F, hoodies rarely look seasonal in daytime footage here, so shoot fleece looks indoors or at dusk. At least four months a year bring under half an inch of rain, so the sun, not the forecast, is what to plan around: expose for white and light tees, which lose detail first, and use open shade for close-ups of the print. Around 22 days a year top 100°F, most of them in midsummer, so keep phones and cameras out of direct sun between takes, since they can overheat before the talent does. The yearly rain total is only about 9.4 inches, so a lookbook shoot planned weeks ahead will very likely get the dry day it needs.

Ordering from Riverside
When should a creator based in Riverside release a hoodie drop?
No month in Riverside averages a high under 65°F, so the weather will never cue a hoodie drop; time it to fans in colder states, who start shopping for fleece in early fall, and ship before the holiday carrier cutoffs.
