Weather in January
Temperature
The advent of January signifies a minor shift to an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.4°C (88.5°F), aligning closely with December. In Tomalá, January nights witness a remarkable decline from the day's zenith to a comfortable 18.3°C (64.9°F).Heat index
During January, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. 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 meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. 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. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
