Weather in January
Temperature
Kpone's shift into January sets the average high-temperature at a still hot 30.4°C (86.7°F), a figure that deviates only slightly from December's 30.3°C (86.5°F). Kpone's nighttime temperature in January consistently rests at a moderately hot 25.9°C (78.6°F).Heat index
The heat index for January is appraised at a fiery hot 37°C (98.6°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection.
