January weather forecast
Woree, Australia

January, the same as December, is a moderately hot summer month in Woree, Australia, with an average temperature varying between 24.3°C (75.7°F) and 29.3°C (84.7°F).

Temperature

January's onset brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.3°C (84.7°F), showing a minute difference from December's 29.2°C (84.6°F). A consistent average low of 24.3°C (75.7°F) is noted in Woree throughout January, only a small step down from its daytime high.

Heat index

January's average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Note: The UV index of 7 during January translates into the following guidance:
Persist with safeguards and heed sun safety doctrines. Keeping sunburn at bay is of prime importance. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a staple for defending the face, eyes, ears, and neck from the Sun.
