Weather in January

With January's arrival, Escuintla notes an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.9°C (84°F), closely following the trend of the preceding month. Throughout the month of January, the nighttime temperature dips to an average of 17.2°C (63°F).Heat index
In January, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). If one remains active during constant exposure, it might cause exhaustion and heat cramps.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
