January weather forecast
Texas, USA

January stands as one of the colder months in Texas. Covering the expanse of the state, the northern panhandle, notably the city of Seminole, often witnesses the lowest temperatures, sometimes plummeting to extreme lows near -23°F (-30.6°C). In contrast, the regions closer to the Gulf of Mexico experience more temperate conditions, with lows seldom falling below 40°F (4.4°C) and highs typically around 60°F (15.6°C). Central Texas observes a milder spectrum of winter temperatures, usually ranging from 45°F (7.2°C) to 65°F (18.3°C).

Comparatively, the eastern part of Texas, which receives the highest annual rainfall, sees a reduction in precipitation levels in January, providing a dryer atmosphere than the typically wet spring months like April and May. However, it is essential to note that while snowfall is rare in central and eastern Texas, the northern panhandle receives its fair share of the white blanket, making it the region with the most snowfall in January.

When juxtaposed with December, January is slightly colder, especially in the northern regions. February, which follows January, generally presents a slight uptick in temperatures but remains within the winter range. The stark contrast between the state's regions in January—from the frigid panhandle to the mild Gulf regions—underscores Texas's vastness and climate diversity.
