Weather in January
Temperature
With the start of January, Malaba measures an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.9°C (85.8°F), not significantly differing from December's 27.8°C (82°F). The month of January sees a significant daily temperature drop, recording an average low-temperature of 16.5°C (61.7°F).Heat index
January's mean heat index is calculated to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
