Weather in January
Temperature
The advent of January brings a subtle shift in temperature, with the average high moving from a tropical 31.5°C (88.7°F) in December to a warm 28.3°C (82.9°F). Throughout January, Ncole experiences a low-temperature average of 21°C (69.8°F).Heat index
January's heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. 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 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: In January, a daily maximum UV index of 6 leads to the following instructions:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Limit your exposure to the sun's UV radiation, which is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and note that parasols or canopies may not provide full sun protection. Sun protection is enhanced with clothing that boasts a tight weave yet offers a loose fit.
