great time for bargain hunters who don't mind the cold.
January
Weather:
- Average High: 36°F (4°C)
- Average Low: 26°F (-3°C)
-January is typically the coolest month in New York City.
Being in a city full of tall buildings can make the wind feel
colder and stronger than normal, so be sure to dress for the
weather.
What to Wear:
- boots or goulashes
- to keep your feet warm and dry
- dress in
layers -- it will typically be warm in stores, subways and
attractions, but it is nearly impossible to visit New York
City without spending time outside, so you'll want to ensure
you're warmly dressed for walking around
- a warm coat,
hats, earmuffs, scarves, and gloves/mittens
January Perks:
- Because tourism drops off after the Christmas holidays, this is a great time to find bargain accommodations and flights to New York City

- January is also a great time to take advantage of the great post-holiday sales at New York City stores
- dine at some of New York City's best restaurants at a great discount during New York City Restaurant Week |
