Weather in January
Temperature
The ushering in of January brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.1°C (84.4°F), closely mirroring the 29.6°C (85.3°F) of December. Okangwindi records an average nighttime low-temperature of 19.9°C (67.8°F) throughout January.Heat index
For January, the heat index is evaluated at a hot 31°C (87.8°F). Uninterrupted exposure and activity might result in fatigue, potentially causing heat cramps.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
