What January feels like
January is when Charlotte gets its one winter event, and it is usually ice rather than snow — the city owns a handful of plows and has no illusions about them. Uptown empties out after work and on weekends, which makes the museums pleasantly easy.
Rain arrives about 7 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans. about 17 nights dip below freezing.
