The American Southwest and Southern California would not be good places to spend the marketing dollar on rain umbrellas, since rain there is infrequent. Better places would be in Hawaii, and the Midwestern states where rain is much more frequent. However, umbrellas that create shade or can be used at the beach are popular in the Southwest and California.
