Warmer-Than-Average Temps Recorded In Massachusetts This January

January 2020 has been a generally mild month in Massachusetts, according to the National Weather Service. With just a few days left before February, just three days have had colder-than-average temperatures.

The warmest days by far came during the weekend of Jan. 11 and 12, when temperatures were a full 30 degrees of above average. The record-smashing weather was more reminiscent of mid-Junethan the beginning of the year.

The graphic below from the National Weather Service shows the average high and low temperature for each day, with this year's deviation in between. As of Sunday, 23 of 26 recorded temperatures were above average.

"Other than a handful of days with below-normal average temps, January's been a mild month when looking at the departures from normal," the NWS said.

Sunday, which was more than 16 degrees above average, marked the anniversary of a storm that dropped two feet of snow in Boston in 2015 ahead of a six-week "snow blitz" that continued into March, the NWS said.

More snow is possible in the coming week, but it will be a far cry from 2015's storm. Potential snow is in the forecast on Saturday night, though expected accumulation totals have not yet been announced.
