Screen printing through El Monte's year
About 64 days a year reach 90°F, with August the hottest month, so the summer run favors lighter blanks and softer prints, and heavier tees suit the cooler months. With every month's average high at 65°F or above, the fleece run can be small, sized for cool mornings and nights, while tees do most of the work. At least five months a year get under half an inch of rain, and those long sunny stretches favor pale tees and soft prints that stay comfortable outdoors. February brings about 4.2 inches of rain, the most of any month, so an outdoor event with its date printed on the shirts is safer scheduled for a drier month.

Screen Printing in El Monte
Should a screen print order in El Monte go on tees or hoodies?
Mostly lightweight tees. Summer heat in El Monte makes tees and tanks the workhorses, and a hoodie run can be sized for evenings. Under-18s run slightly ahead of their US share here, so either garment may need some youth sizes; keep the main print simple enough to reduce cleanly for them.
