What Charlotte's weather means for schools and clubs
Charlotte gets about 49 days a year at 90°F or above, so preseason practice runs hot, then highs average under 65°F from November, which turns the late-season crowd toward fleece. January, the coolest month, averages a high of 52°F, so a midweight hoodie covers most winter game nights, with beanies as an add-on for the coldest ones. Spring sports open in cool air, since highs stay under a 65°F average through March, so softball, baseball and track orders should include a long sleeve or a warmup jacket. On about 58 nights a year the temperature drops to 32°F or lower, so a quarter-zip or fleece jacket for coaches, who stand on the sideline the whole game, belongs in the late-fall order. For any team or club active in August, the soggiest month at roughly 4.4 inches of rain, the order needs a warmup jacket or long sleeve that can take a soaking.
