Weather in January
Temperature
As January takes hold, the average high-temperature is a still hot 30.3°C (86.5°F), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. In Sachona, January is marked by an average low-temperature of 20.4°C (68.7°F).Heat index
The heat index for January is computed to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun's UV radiation is at its peak. Limit your exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
