Weather in January
Temperature
In January, Ouéto experiences a barely noticeable shift in meteorological conditions, with average high-temperatures moving from 32°C (89.6°F) in December to a still tropical 32.1°C (89.8°F). In January, the temperature drops to an average of 24.6°C (76.3°F) at night.Heat index
The heat index value during January is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during January translates into the following directions:
Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
