Summer heat and the parcel
July afternoons in North Carolina average 88 °F, by NOAA’s 1991–2020 statewide averages. In the South Atlantic, Florida (92 °F), South Carolina (91 °F), Georgia (91 °F) and Washington, DC (90 °F) run hotter. A parcel left on a porch through a summer afternoon gets warmer than the forecast. Bring it in on arrival and move the vials to a freezer at −4 °F that day.
Winter cold and condensation
January nights average 30 °F. West Virginia (23 °F), Maryland (25 °F), Virginia (26 °F), Delaware (27 °F) and Washington, DC (30 °F) are colder. A vial that arrives cold should still reach room temperature before the vacuum is broken, so moisture from the room does not condense on the powder.
The full guidance is on the storage and handling page.
