Weather in January
Temperature
Puerto Nariño indicates an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30°C (86°F) in January, showing minor variation from December's 30.4°C (86.7°F). In Puerto Nariño, an average temperature of 22.3°C (72.1°F) is noted during January nights.Heat index
The heat index in January is evaluated at a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

The months with the lowest UV index are January through June, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.Note: A maximum UV index of 6 in January translates into the following recommendations:
Conform to measures and uphold sun safety traditions. Warding off skin and eye harm is necessary. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
