Weather in January
Temperature
The shift into January finds Chimichagua at an average high-temperature of a very hot 35.9°C (96.6°F), closely comparable to December's conditions. Despite the stark contrast with daytime temperatures, Chimichagua's January nights average at a pleasant 22.2°C (72°F).Heat index
For most parts of January, the heat index is estimated at a burning hot 47°C (116.6°F). Remain cautious: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are foreseeable. Ongoing activity may precipitate heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

In Chimichagua, the average relative humidity in January is 59%.Rainfall
January and February are months with the least rain when the rain falls for 8.8 days and typically aggregates up to 22mm (0.87") of rain.Daylight

Sunshine

The average daily maximum UV index in January is 7. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: In January, a daily UV index of 7 turns into the following recommendations:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
