What's the Hottest Weather Temperature Ever Recorded in Houston in January?

The coldest month of the year in Houston is January which has an average daily temperature of just 50.4 degrees. But what is the hottest temperature ever recorded in Dallas in January the coldest month of the year in the city?



Weather temperatures have officially been kept in Houston, Texas since 1889. So the hottest temperature record for January in Houston is from 1889 until the present day.

What's the Hottest Temperature Ever Recorded in Houston in January?

  • 84 degrees on January 30, 1911 and January 26, 1975

That's right the hottest temperature ever recorded in Houston in the month of January is a balmy 84 degrees. That record hottest temperature for the month of January in Houston was set on January 30, 1911 and was matched on January 26, 1975.

Looking over the record hottest temperatures for each day in January one thing is clear. Days when the temperature soars to 80 degrees or more are not that uncommon in Houston. There have only been four days in January, 4th, 7th, 8th and 15th, that have never had a 80 degree day in any year since 1889, and all four days record hottest temperature is 79 degrees.

When was the last time it was 80 degrees in Houston in January? That was on January 3, 2009, when the temperature reached a balmy 83 degrees. January, along with November and December, are the only three months without a 90 degree temperature day in Houston weather history.

Will the temperature rise to 84 degrees or above this January in Houston? Since it has only happened two times since 1889 the odds are pretty high that it will not be 84 degrees or above this January in Houston but an 80 degree temperature day would not be all that surprising.
