Weather in January
Temperature
January proves to be the coldest month, recording an average maximum temperature of 27.6°C (81.7°F) and a minimum temperature of 20.3°C (68.5°F).Heat index
For January, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). Persistently participating in activities during exposure may lead to fatigue and induce heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.

Follow precautions and abide by sun safety rules. Deterrence of sunburn is imperative. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
