We ended the month with 2.93” of precipitation which is only 49% of normal and 3.03” below our normal total precipitation for January.

No snowfall.


A fairly “boring” month weather wise with one other notable highlight worth mentioning: the wind gust to 54mph on January 5th.  Otherwise a very quiet month for weather events.

In summary: January 2019 was slightly warmer than normal, and much drier than normal.
