Weather in January
Temperature
As Demba welcomes January, the average high-temperature records at a still moderately hot 29.7°C (85.5°F), marking an insignificant deviation from the prior month. Demba reports an average nighttime low-temperature of 20.6°C (69.1°F) in January.Heat index
In January, the average heat index is estimated at a torrid 37°C (98.6°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
