Weather in January
Temperature
Oshandi, Namibia, marks the onset of January with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.4°C (88.5°F), subtly divergent from December's 31.8°C (89.2°F). Oshandi's nights in January experience an average temperature drop to a pleasant 22.7°C (72.9°F).Heat index
Throughout January, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 33°C (91.4°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. 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 are particularly important for 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.
