Weather in January

January, the same as December, in Thuva, Kenya, is a hot summer month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 25°C (77°F) and 30.1°C (86.2°F).

Temperature

Entering January, Thuva's average high-temperature reads a still tropical 30.1°C (86.2°F), indicating a close resemblance to the previous month's climate. In the month of January, the average temperature dips to a warm 25°C (77°F) during the night.

Heat index

January's heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 37°C (98.6°F). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of 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 of high significance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
