Weather in January

As December transitions into January, the average high-temperature rests at a still moderately hot 27.9°C (82.2°F), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. During January, Palmar's nights hold steady with an average temperature of 25.8°C (78.4°F), barely dropping from the daytime highs.Heat index
During January, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Ongoing activity coupled with exposure often results in weariness and could induce heat cramps.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
