Weather in January
Temperature
The start of January sees the average high-temperature at a still warm 29°C (84.2°F), showing little difference from December's 29.4°C (84.9°F). During the nights in January, Academia observes an average low-temperature of 18.9°C (66°F).Heat index
In January, the heat index is computed to be 29°C (84.2°F). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in January is 41%.Rainfall
In Academia, during January, the rain falls for 14 days and regularly aggregates up to 46mm (1.81") of precipitation. Throughout the year, there are 80.2 rainfall days, and 304mm (11.97") of precipitation is accumulated.Daylight

Sunshine
In Academia, the average sunshine in January is 9.6h.UV index
January, February, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.Note: In January, a regular UV index of 6 translates into these guidelines:
Stand by precautions and apply sun safety measures. Evading sunburn is of great importance. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. Sunglasses providing both UVA and UVB protection are non-negotiable on sunlit days.
