Map of the contiguous United States (view Alaska) showing which of three temperature outcomes—much warmer than average (reds), average, or much cooler than average (blue)—is most likely for the month of January. Darker colors mean greater chances, not bigger temperature extremes. White areas mean a relatively warm, cool, or near-average January are equally likely.
