What January feels like
January is when this town belongs to residents and dog walkers, and a good share of the pancake houses and mini-golf courses simply lock up until March. Frost is a regular thing this far up the coast, and the sand at sunrise is gorgeous and completely deserted.
Expect about 5 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. about 12 nights dip below freezing.
