Weather in January
Temperature
January brings a marginal elevation to a moderately hot 29.4°C (84.9°F) from December's 31°C (87.8°F) in Andohajango's average high-temperatures. A modest decline from daytime high temperatures is noticed in January, marking the average low at a still warm 24.4°C (75.9°F).Heat index
The average heat index in January is estimated at a sweltering 36°C (96.8°F). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
Humidity
In January, the average relative humidity is 81%.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is January, when the rain falls for 29.6 days and typically aggregates up to 399mm (15.71") of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine
The average sunshine in January is 9.2h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are January through April, August through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: The daily high UV index of 7 in January translates into this advice:
Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
