Weather in January
Temperature
The arrival of January coincides with an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.9°C (87.6°F), indicating a minimal shift from December's 31.1°C (88°F). Throughout January, an average nighttime temperature of 22.1°C (71.8°F) is experienced.Heat index
January's average heat index is computed to be a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Shield from overexposure. Defense against sun-related harm is required. 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. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
