Glicério, Brazil

January, like December, in Glicério, Brazil, is another warm summer month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 21°C (69.8°F) and 29.3°C (84.7°F).

Temperature

The initiation of January sees an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 29.3°C (84.7°F), showing minor variations from the previous month. January's nights in Glicério observe an average temperature of 21°C (69.8°F).

Heat index

During January, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with 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 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index in Glicério are January through April, June through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: A daily high UV index of 6 in January leads to these guidelines:
Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
