The purpose of this project is to analyze weather data for June and December in Oahu to determine if a surf shop is sustainable year-round.
After reviewing the weather data we can reach the following conclusions:
- June's data shows there would be no problem for this time of year. With a mean and median of 75 degrees, the weather is suitable for this type of business.
- Temperatures cool in December, but not dramatically. The mean and median are 71 degrees.
- However, the min temperature is 56 which is likely too cool for surfing. With 50% of temperatures sinking below the 70 degree mark, December would not be as busy of a month as June.
If the surf shop can perform well in the summer season to offset the slower winter months, a surf shop may be sustainable year round. Further queries could take other weather patterns--like rain--into consideration. An additional area of analysis might also be to consider the change of season's affect on the tides.
