One of the coldest January’s on record in Indiana
The upper level pattern for much of January was highlighted by a broad ridge of high pressure in the western part of the country, and a trough of low pressure east of the Rockies. This enabled repeated blasts of air from the arctic and polar regions to move into the eastern part of the country. This resulted in the coldest January for many across central Indiana over 30 years.
January precipitation ranged from below normal in southwest Indiana to normal or slightly above normal across the remainder of the state. Liquid precipitation totals measured from 1.5 inches to more than 4 inches. Most of the state received between 2 to 4 inches of liquid precipitation during January.
