January weather forecast
Armabé, Ivory Coast

January, the same as December, in Armabé, Ivory Coast, is another tropical winter month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 31.1°C (88°F) and an average low of 24.5°C (76.1°F).

Temperature

January experiences an average high-temperature of a still hot 31.1°C (88°F), barely different from December's 30.6°C (87.1°F). In Armabé, the nighttime temperature averages to a moderately hot 24.5°C (76.1°F) during January.

Heat index

The heat index for January is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

UV index

January through May, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in January leads to these recommendations:
Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
