Hint
The answer is a single letter.
The answer is
$\pi$
As observed by Beastly Gerbil, the first half of the rebus is
$\frac1i$
because
January is the first month and an eye is the universal rebus of 'i'.
The image of the log represents
logarithm
The thermometer and the coal represent
$-1$
because
30.2° F is -1° C. The coal appearing beneath the line represents removing the 'C' because coal is carbon, whose elemental symbol is 'C'.
So the second part becomes
$\log(-1)$
We know that
$\log(-1) = i\pi$ from Euler's Equation, $e^{iπ} + 1 = 0$,
so the second part is
$i\pi$
Given the first part we end up with:
$\frac{i\pi}i$
which is just
$\pi$
Currently unsure about the last part but the first part is
$\frac1i \log \left(\frac{30.2?}{?}\right)$
because
January is the first month and its over an eye and then there is a log and it then might be 30.2 because that is the number shown
EDIT:
Well done @Silenus, who worked out that
The last part is -1 because 30.2 F is -1 C (Coal indicates C). This means that the equation is:
$\frac1i \log (-1)$
Which is
$\frac{i\pi}i$
Which is simply
$\pi$
