Carolinas moving into second week of January, coldest month of year

United States: The Former Charlotte Observer weather writer Steve Lyttle gives updates on the weather of Carolinas, and people are moving into the second week of January, the coldest month of the year. 

He took to his official social media and shared the information, highlighted in the statement, “We’re moving into the second week of January, and our 8-14 day outlook carries us into the second half of what is typically the coldest month of the year. But the computer models are telling us that there isn’t anything too crazy in our meteorological future in Carolinas.” 

The coming week will bring some chilly days (like today), some days with near-average temperatures, and even a mild day perhaps (Wednesday). And looking ahead to the period of January, 15-21, the outlook is for above-average temperatures in the part of the world.

So unless something changes, it’s life as usual. Sometimes that’s good in Carolinas.
