What San Antonio's weather means for skate and surf shops
Summer runs long in San Antonio, with about 112 days a year at 90°F or more, so plan the year's biggest tee drop for spring, while riding weather is comfortable. Highs drop under a 65°F average only from December to January, but January lows average 40°F, so a midweight hoodie sells for dawn sessions even in a warm climate. Tee weather, a 70°F average high or warmer, runs March to November, long enough to support two tee drops a year, one in spring and one after the worst of the summer heat. May brings the most rain, about 4.4 inches, which keeps skaters off wet concrete, so date a contest shirt or a release party for a drier month.

What should a skate or surf shop in San Antonio keep on the rack in winter?
A small fleece section, not a fleece wall: winter is just December to January under a 65°F average high, so a midweight hoodie and a long sleeve next to the tees are enough.
