Weather in January
Temperature
The advent of January presents an average high-temperature of a tropical 30°C (86°F), maintaining a close correlation with the preceding month. Balo, in January, observes a steady average low-temperature of 18.1°C (64.6°F).Heat index
During January, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 32°C (89.6°F). Constant exposure and activity lead to possible fatigue. Prolonged exercise may result in heat cramps.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.

January through May, July, September through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 6 during January translates into the following directions:
Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
