Weather in January
Temperature
January is the month when Moloundou, Cameroon, experiences its warmest temperatures, averaging a high of 35.7°C (96.3°F) and a low of 21.5°C (70.7°F).Heat index
Throughout January, the heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 44°C (111.2°F). Observe: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is on the horizon with prolonged exertion.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
