Weather in January
Temperature
January, recognised by an average high temperature of 32.3°C (90.1°F) and a low of 20.8°C (69.4°F), is Taroom's warmest month.Heat index
Throughout January, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
