What Fresno's weather means for skate and surf shops
Summer runs long in Fresno, with about 113 days a year at 90°F or more, so plan the year's biggest tee drop for spring, while riding weather is comfortable. Average highs sit under 65°F from December to February, comfortable riding weather after the summer heat, so time the fleece drop to that window and to the holiday gift rush. Highs reach 70°F or more from April to October, so the tee and cap restock should land just before that stretch begins. Some 39 days a year reach 100°F, so summer is a slow stretch for outdoor sessions and a good time to release a light tee for the early-morning crew. Several months a year get almost no rain, and only about 11 inches fall in all, so sunny-day staples like caps and five-panels keep selling.
